We mostly play here. But we're talking about comping and Friedman is giving an example, then we all solo. I comp for Friedman and the bass solo

David just said something great. Just passing it on!

Pedal the melody, not the accompanyment. Get it?

Greetings everyone,
Just took delivery on a new Musser M55. I'm geting back to mallet playing after a long, long hiatus. Very excited!

Could use some advice on a setup question. The highest F on the instrument rings even when the damper pedal is up.

How best to fix this?

Thanks!

This tune by Pat Metheny is titled Letter from Home and was featured on a CD of the same name that Pat put out in the 1990s.

The left hand accompaniment is mostly single line arpeggios which provide rhythmic movement and keep the piece flowing. The right hand uses octaves occasionally, which really sound good on vibes.
