TOTM - Green Dolphin Street - End of First Half

This is being translated for Chinese students.

歡迎來到www.vibesworkshop.com,我們正在討論我們的每月一曲Green Dolphin Street,我們之前講的是在曲子的前半部,都是關於調式音階(Modal),第二部分,是很好的和弦二級接五級(II-V)的練習。主要也是因為和聲以小三度轉調進行(minor thirds)。第一部分的過門段(bridge)的和聲進行為(~Music~)Dm-G7-Cmaj7,然後Fm7(此為Cmaj7的上四度)-Bb7-Ebmaj7,然後回去C調。只要試這個部分,你可以循環演奏它(loop it)...Ya!只要試這個部分,然後這幾個和絃走完就好,不要走下去。把小部份東西循環演奏一直是個很好的練習方式,你再練的時候應該,開始,停下,開始,停下,這樣子你會真正學習曲子的每個部份。

Moment's Notice (John Coltrane) - Practicing Lines

Got in early today at Berklee and found an open practice room for some shedding before teaching. Decided to work on playing lines over Coltrane's classic "Moment's Notice". In this clip I'm focusing on using the inside two mallets with the open spread fulcrum (Fulcrum Grip). An article on the grip which includes photos can be downloaded from my website.
