Man Friedman rocks! We had a half an hour before a presentation by the xylo guys on George Hamilton Green. David just talked a bit. So check it out!

This is a basic arrangement for vibes or marimba of the popular jazz standard "Afternoon in Paris". It demonstrates a couple different ways to accompany a melody - using a counter line or a block chord. It also employs a simple pedal point for the left hand during the bridge.

A PDF of the arrangement can be downloaded HERE. So print down a copy and try it out!

Ted...

I talk a little about the Bird blues changes. I always thought of them as a rebellion to the blues. It's harder to play the blues over them and it forces you to really play through the changes.

I love this lesson and he says 'It's Important to Sing'. I love when I hear my idols saying things that I believe, It means I'm on track!

Well maybe things are back to normal. Before I go and apologize and tell you guys what happened and everything else I have to say, let me see what's up with my partner.

This was a terrible week for me. I'm still not sure completely as to what happened here.

Check this out! What a treat to come home to this in my inbox. David Friedman playing Milestones.

This is the old Milestones. Do you know the story? There are 2 Milestones and this one came first. The modal one that we all know came second.

I love watching David play. Check out his right hand, how he swings and how he throws in the chords. This is a great study for all of us!

Me and Marc Przbalowski talking about comping for bass solos.
