Subscribers

I have been slack on posting. Melody arrangement and rubato "comping". Suggestions/criticism is as always welcome and encouraged.

Final wrap up with odd time signatures.

Happy birthday Gary! I'm so glad you hang out on the site and spend time with us!! Hope you had a great day!

Here is pt. 1 of my wrap up with the odd time signature series.

Interesting video

Some tips on combining 5 and 4.

An old member of the site (Tifoo) sent this transcription from one of my videos of Bluesette. It's just the head, but I thought I'd post it.

Here's the video: http://www.vibesworkshop.com/video/bluesette-video/tonymiceli/010109

The transcription is below.

What up, VWS. I am trying to post everyday, so in light of that... here is what I worked on for a good part of the day. I took an etude for Prince and worked it out incorporating all the sticks. This was pretty difficult for me. I mess up the head a little bit, because I was so brain dead by the time I recorded this. This is but half the etude, it is a two chorus etude, so in the next few days I will post the whole thing. I'm still always working on the "sweet spot" of pedaling lines... not too ringy, but enough to give sustain.
