Vibraphone

Here's a great video about a vibe player I knew nothing about. However he plays great and is a great guy.

But I'll let John Keene tell the story, it's a bit tragic. John turned me onto the video.

Dedicated to the great Charlie Haden

Hi,

Click on the brackets on the bottom right of the video box and you can watch in full screen mode.

Also print out the etude which is attached to this lesson.

Here is your assignment:

Play this all over your instrument. Just play the progression. Grab a spot and a voicing and play it. Move to another spot and play it. Use the chord symbols, not the notes. Play in all inversions.

Ok let's move to another TOTM.

How about:
All the Things You Are
and
Prince Albert

Do you know about these tunes? Prince Albert is a contrafact of All the Things You Are. That is same chords but new melody.

Prince Albert is a great bebop tune and GREAT to play through all the keys.

So you're studying one set of chord changes, but two tunes.

So get ready for some fun lessons!

Hello everyone, I just created a new YT channel titled Ed Saindon Piano. Uploaded clips include solo piano versions of Danny Boy (using harmony from Bill Evans and Keith Jarrett) as well as several renditions of Tennessee Waltz. Here's a clip of Over The Rainbow that includes several modulations along with some harmony by Keith Jarrett.

A copy of the lead sheet with the harmonized changes and modulations can be downloaded here:
