I had the privilege to play in my university's top jazz ensemble this semester. Here's an informal recording we did at the end of the semester of Milt Jackson's "The Prophet Speaks". It's a rather unusual 20 bar blues. Fun to blow on! I'm…

Been too long since I have posted in my blog. The Friday morning jam at my home has added a base player to our lead guitar, clarinet and me on the vibes. As a percussion player who is rhythm-challenged, I find playing anything upbeat, or…

Chinese translation is for Chinese students 打開PDF你會看到兩種不同的intro方式。 第一種,是適合用在快的曲子之前。 有一個固定低音,然後上面是五級三和弦和弦循著半音下行, 第二種適合用在中版速度的Rhythm Changes 是一個非常像1 - 6 - 2 - 5的聲響,但是用了很多tritone sub, 像是Db和弦代替了原本1 - 6 - 2 - 5中的G7b9 像是B和弦代替了原本1 - 6 - 2 -…

chinese translation is for Chinese students 講到intro,其實有千千萬萬種不同的方式,除了之前介紹到的降五音intro, 這邊又多了另一種intro的idea。 我們可以稱這個intro為I - IV。 因為是不斷反覆在一級和四級和弦中,並且導入到第一個和弦的方式。 在PDF中的第一個intro就是單傳的反覆在一級大和弦(Major chord)和四級大和弦中, 最後接到ii - V - I。…

Piper Flyer Vibraphone is in its new practice/performance room in the Chapel of the Snows - Antarctica. The instrument plays great but setting it up leaves a lot to be desired. So, there's a more work yet to be done to make this instrument…

Day 5: We've combined the top note passing tones with the inner voice passing tones. It's a little tricky to complete all this dampening in tempo, so be sure to pick a nice, relaxed pace to work at!

Day 4: Rather than having the top notes of the chords as the passing tones, we've changed the passing tones to inner voicings. These passing tones have the b9, which creates a different tension.

This is a great exercise to help you really start thinking about comping through the scales. It's the A section to Little Sunflower harmonized in block chords. It's easy and if you know the tune you'll easily play it in D minor. Keep it…
