Any one in education that knows about certificates? I'm just wondering about making a 2 year course and handing out a certificate upon completion. And what's cool is we could ALL be involved with the process of others getting certificates…
Hey guys, I've been seeing lots of great posts lately on comping, voicings, duo/solo playing, playing Brazilian music...(that Gary clip with Stan playing Jobim just knocks me out). Here's a clip from a recent gig sort that ties in some of…

We should wrap up the chord and harmony festival, huh???
What about we get into lines. A bebop tune a week for 8 weeks. Play analyze and talk about the tune.
I'm just learning Little Willie Leaps and it's such a cool tune. The thing about…

Playing 'All God's Chillin' Got Rhythm'. Practicing my up tempos. As I'm playing I'm thinking wow, this is a drum. I was getting into this whole drum thing on the vibes and it was so cool. To play with just 2 mallets and think of this as a…

Here The N°8. It was nice to have to listen to Gregorian singing - made me re-discover this wonderful music. At 0'32 and 2'21 I had to cut bad scratches, don't know where they are coming from...
Barry recently posted a little duet of Amazing Grace with his daughter on Flute. Florian and Emily are around the same age (10-11). Florian just started learning guitar this year. He was ok to record and post our first little duet of a…
The first thing I notice in this video is the left hand playing right in the range of the bass player. Teddy Wilson came from the Benny Goodman Quartet where for a time there was no bass player. So it was Teddy Wilson's left hand.
Also I…
