Epic Rhythm Changes Etude

As I was doing this, I thought that maybe I did one of these before on the site. 

But it's ok, here's another one! 

5 choruses of Rhythm Changes. 3 choruses of lines and one of voicings. 

Then there's one where I play quarter notes on top and voice chords on the beat. It's a great way to study harmone, voicings and make simple lines. 

Play it with Aebersold Ireal, or the bass track I have here. And do the following. 

In Lands I Never Saw: Double Image, David Friedman & David Samuels

The classic marimba and vibraphone duet. These two instruments are one of my favorite color contrast and sound. Especially when it’s just two players. The marimba has a steady deep side that can quickly change to a higher tone at any moment. The same goes for the vibraphone but I feel that the vibraphones tone can cut through more. So, by having the deep and higher play together sounds just amazing in my opinion.
