Raphael is going to be posting etudes on the site, one a month for subscribers. Here's the first one! He's putting it in Sibelius and as soon as it's done I'll get it on the site.
But check this etude out. This cat can play!!
I have not been playing much lately (which is not really making me happy)...but anyway, I grabbed a few minutes and was thinking about the Stride Blues stuff that Tony & Ed had done. So I propped up my iPhone, and made a little video…
Does anyone know where I can obtain a chart to "Tanguedia III" by Astor Piazzolla? The piece is on Tango: Zero Hour and Gary has recorded it on his Libertango CD. I've searched several online sheet music retailers with no luck, so if…
I happened upon this You Tube clip commemorating Victor Feldman's posthumous induction into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville, Tennessee. A fitting tribute to a musical genius and icon who was removed from us too young.
Here's an etude written by Simon working on his left hand.
I think it's great that David has his students write etudes to work on the technique!!
Check out Simon's monster left hand.

This was being passed around by singers, they loved it for the harmony between the voices. Andy Williams and Connie Francis. They ARE right, this is really…
Tony,
You're the absolute greatest! You've figured out how to do it all. I enjoy checking in with www.vibesworkshop.com every day now to see what's new and old in the vibe world. I get a lot of great new practice ideas and teaching ideas…
I did a study of this tune over the last several days with some specific things in mind. Here's what I did and here are some practice tape versions of the tune.

2. Downloaded Tony Bennet singing it. Ahhhhh

I played with our site bass player today, Mark Pryzbalowski and we named our favorite tune which for both of us in Shenandoah (mine always changes, but this one is always way up their).
So here it is. There's a suprise in the tune, and…
The concept of lazy voicings can help you find NEW voicings. When you play lazy voicings you move voicings to the next chords closest notes. This can even help you get away from the root which is a voicing suprisingly you can usually omit…
I played with our official site bass player today and we recorded a couple tunes. I thought I'd post them. Mark is a great guy and a great player and a great friend! We get together as often as we can and play and work on stuff. Check out…
I took on the challenge of learning the Chopin Prelude no. 4 that Dana posted (See Check This Out). It looked relatively easy. Nice and slow, not so many notes. But, it was really tough for me. I needed to do some revoicings because…
I was called for a gig at the last minute last night and barely made it in on time. The gig turned out to be the best gig I've done in a while. We made a crap-load in tips and the Manager liked us so much he just payed us extra and asked…
