In this section we will study and play a tune every week.
In some cases we will have a duet verion to record with or everybody will record a solo version or even a version with aebersold or band in a box. In fact everything is possible. As long as you study the tune and record something.
I hope this is gonna be helpful for a lot of you guys!

Hi there,
I'm practicing the Blues Etude (link below) but I have a problem to analyze bar 35. The chord on beat 4 is a bII9, a substitute dominant, right? But what function is a f d bflat a c on beat 1 - 3 in measure 35? Any help, please? Is it kind of a V13? Any help?
Thanxalot,

Here's a really quick and simple 4 mallet version of invitation.
I talk about coming up with a quick version of the tune that fits with the melody, just something to get you going. Here's a version of that. Just really simple.
I would use this if you're having trouble coming up with your own version.
Hi Tony!
I've been messing around with Lou Reed's song Perfect Day and tried to do a jazz interpretation of the harmonic progressions but I got in trouble with the Fmaj and Dm bar.
Am/D7/Gmaj/Cmaj would be a II/V/I/VI progression in Gmaj.
I tried to use a Fmaj scale for soloing over the next two bars F(maj)/Dm as this would be a I/VI progression in Fmaj but this does not sound good.
So maybe you can give me a tip which scale to use on the three bars F(maj)/Dm/E7?

Hey Guys,
I thought I'd start a little discussion/lesson on how to transcribe changes to tunes. As a drummer(or a drumming vibist..haha) I have been(and still am) always struggling with learning and transcribing changes and I thought I'd start out here with some tips on how to break it down. As Tony's shrink would say: if you have a big problem, brake it down into smaller problems and the big problem will go away.
I don't post much but now that I'm studying with Tony, he said that I have to share this on the site. I sent a dvd of me playing to PAS last year to apply for the Terry Gibbs scholarship and I got an email yesterday saying that they have selected me as the winner. I'm pretty excited about it and thought I should share this on vibes workshop. They also said that they're going to put me on the site which would be pretty cool.
