One of the best swinging 4tet where Milt is pushed to his limits and offers some of his sharpest solos. Same thing applies to Joe Pass. All due to the incredibly good rythm section. There's a lot of this team's work on YouTube. Enjoy !
Here's what you do with this.
write in the chord names with the alterations.
memorize the voicings.
play them, add rhythm.
start changing the inversions of some of the voicings.
make a solo based off of the chord tones of the voicings on the sheet.
what notes would you stick in between as passing notes?
Did I post something like this recently.
I'm so busy I can't remember! But here's another one!
This is a recording of my new marimba solo piece, Charlie Chaplin, performed by the wonderful young marimbist, Ayami Okamura. We did this at my house. We plan to do a more professional recording in the middle of October.
I love her groove, a quality missing in too many classical marimbists.
I know i know guys we are metal freaks and not that much into that wooden stuff. BUT ! ... we can learn a lot from those marimba prodigies that bloom up years after years.
Adélaïde Ferrière is the new french star of the marimba. She is a concert player yet at the age of 20 and plays percussion as well as she plays marimba. She already won few awards in France as best young classical player ... And by the way who said Burton’s grip didn’t fit to marimba ?
