Ideas For Intros Pt. 1 by Behn Gillece

Chinese translation is for Chinese students
前奏(intro)
有很多不同的方式可以為一首曲子加一些前奏,
今天要講的叫做b5 intro。
因為開始的那個音是從曲子調性的主音算起來的降第五音。
一路下行,主要的目的是帶領到第一個和弦(PDF中是Fmajor)

通常我們如果用這個intro,會讓他是8小節intro,也就是像PDF中寫的。
當然在這些和聲配置(Voicing)中間,你可以插入其他不同的Voicing,
增添色彩。

Scandinavian Scenes (Malletkat)

hey, long time since i´ve been posting something.i´m busy doing a new program with my duo partner on sax and we added an actor who is reading poetry. this is just a part of a very long complex tune and i left out the poetry because it´s in german only. i only play the malletkat and it´s just very simple but perfect to create atmosphere.

hope you like it...

Sassy Samba, a Jimmy Heath tune

This tune is a tribute to Sara Vaughn. I've always loved it, but as far as I can tell it never really made it into the popular fake books. A friend of mine transcribed it back in the the late 1970s. I recorded this version for piano and marimba a few years ago.

The form is kinda long and a lot of fun to improvise on. It's usually done in even 8ths. I checked Youtube and found several covers by a variety of great jazz players. There are also lyrics for the melody, although I don't know who wrote them.

A lead sheet is included.

Here's a great treat from vibist Joe Doubleday

Joe Doubleday was an early subscriber on the site. He used to post his gigs when he was in high school and just beginning on vibes.

His mom was an airline stewardess so he would fly around the country for free taking lessons off of vibe players and fly home later in the day. Amazing!

Fast forward 8 years and he's graduated Berklee and Juliard and is a great vibe player! He did a cd with a really great clarinetist.

He said I could post a Soundcloud link to the CD for Vibesworkshop Subscribers to check out. It's great!
