So the University of the Arts (where Tony teaches in Illadelph) is illin' hard this year and we are going to start a monthly to bi monthly study. So we will blog on the blogoshphere of the interwebs via vibesworkshop.com about a certain composer or style, recommend tunes/info/recordings to each other, each learn some tunes from that composer or in that style, and eventually meet up and have a vibe hang that is centered around the topic du jour of the month.

The first up on the list is Duke Ellington/ Billy Strayhorn.

Delaware Students, Check in here and I'll make sure you can get to Harvey's percussion Videos.
Simply leave a comment with the words 'I'm Checked In' with your first name and last initial.

For the TOTM Tony mentioned that there was a bunch of Summertime stuff already on the site, so I figured it might be good to get it all together in one post. If anyone finds anything else, feel free to add it.

Summertime vibes performances:

since very very few people posted something on ornithology i decided to post this practice session from today. not very structured, few mistakes in the head but anyway...i post it.

i want to hear you guys on that tune please post what you have so far no matter what it is...

i think it´s not easy to play a good solo over it because i tend to fall into scales and licks i always use if it´s that fast...not easy to get rid of that :(
