I've always loved this tune but never learned it because I thought it was so difficult, especially after hearing so many gorgeous versions by Bill Evans. It's not only about playing the chords, but moreover about CONNECTING them and phrasing the melody; always a tremendous challenge on the vibes! So, I started working on it about a month ago, never satisfied with the way I was playing it. (I'm still not, by the way!)
So, here's a work in progress. Comments from the community are welcome!

Peter Weniger and I did a reading of the piece, originally for solo vibraphone. Basically Peter plays the melody and I try to leave out certain phrases that were written in the solo version to avoid too much information. This varies from the written solo because we deviate from the written out solo and improvise a solo together. It's not perfect, which I kind of like but I dig the feel.

You have any? post them here. Interesting ways of practicing scales!

This is an arrangement of Peace with the melody in the bass. It works surprisingly well and opens up some interesting possibilities for the harmony.
