最近這些系列的影片，都是我曾經非常努力練習的，是針對怎麼樣可以把這個樂器演奏得更好。
這一集要講的是四棒適當的運用，因為有些學生只會用到某些棒子，
時常提到演奏四分音符的重要性，你可以用這個方式練習（Tony示範Cmajor, Cminor）
練這個練習時，沒有嚴格的規定，只要把他打得好聽，盡量做音樂，不要當成一個無聊的練習。
這個練習很好幫助左手的兩棒技巧，因為運用左手兩支棒子時，聽起來會聽起來像Voicing。
在這個簡單小練習中，盡量嘗試發覺你自己的東西。一個Pattern或是一個音樂句子。
這非常幫助四棒演奏技巧。
One of my favorite compositions by Keith Jarrett. I've been listening to some brilliant versions from Keith playing this song. Some from the 70's as well as some newer renditions. They are all inspiring but the one from the live version recorded in Lille, France in '81 is very special. Day off from Berklee due to the snowstorm so I had some more time in the shed.
Clip just released on the Vic Firth YouTube channel.
In a lesson this morning, the focus was on solo vibe playing for the song "When You Wish Upon A Star". After the lesson, my student suggested that I record a quick version which illustrated some of the things addressed in the lesson. Here's a quick version that I just recorded on the phone playing one chorus of the melody only.
Here's a simple rootless voicing etude. Listen to it. Do you hear the short and longs? Work them out with the pedal.
