Perpetural Motion Happened!

tonymiceli 13 February 2013

Ok so something cool happened. I've been working on Paganini's Moto Perpetuo for a long time now. Not to play in public just to work on my chops. I've learned the first 3 pages. Ok....

So I would play it over and over, work on technical stuff. It's a great piece to practice because it's a chops builder. It's better then doing scales for me (not that you should stop practicing scales). But I would play it, lose my concentration, have to start over. start playing it slowly and building up speed. But I never felt great about it.

The Importance of Posting

behng 8 February 2013

Hi everyone,

I've been starting to notice more and more people posting and asking questions. Please keep it coming!

When you post questions, this is a very big help for Tony, myself, and the other guys posting lessons on the site. Sometimes, it's hard for us to come up with ideas for lessons, and many times, the questions in posts gives us ideas for topics.

Even if you feel shy and don't want to post your playing, ask questions! This is a big help for us! Thanks!

He plays guitar like a vibe player! :) -V

Check out Joe Pass. check out his intro here. Imagine this was a set of vibes. Doesn't translate totally to our instrument. I grew up playing classical guitar and still think the vibes are more like a guitar than a piano. IMHO

Online Class 1-19-13

behng 13 January 2013

Hi everyone,

Please join Tony and I on Saturday at 2pm (eastern standard, US) for the online class which covers our new TOTM, How Deep Is The Ocean.

Even if you don't feel like you know this tune well, find a recording/lead sheet of it and join us anyway! This is a great opportunity to get insight into this tune, and we're hoping that this class will promote more participation from the members of the site.

As you all know, this site can only exist if we all participate and inspire each other! Hopefully, we will see you there!

Best,

Behn

College Intern Needed

tonymiceli 13 January 2013

Any college cats out there that need an internship? There's a lot of research to be done for the site!!! It would be perfect for a grad student that needed an internship. And since we're pretty legit now, this could go on your resume.
