Here's some ideas for comping in a slow 5/4.

Here's the first lesson on a series that I'll be doing over the next couple of weeks on odd time signature playing. This lesson discusses the phrasing of a melody over a slow 5/4. I apologize for my meowing cat towards the end of the video, haha!

We've talked about doing some lesson about working with singers. And they're coming, they're on my list.

I've spent the last month down here in St. Maarten working with a singer and a bass player. They're very close friends of mine whom I've known for a few years now.

Here's some additional ideas on line exercises.

This little tune is titled Tribute. It is arranged here for 4 mallet solo vibes. Beginning students should find this piece an excellent example of how to accompany a melody on the vibes. It’s not technically difficult, but it is a good sounding piece, suitable for performance. The audio example includes some improvisation too. It’s important to note that you don’t have to obtain super technique to get a nice full sound.

Hi all,

Here's a new etude for the site. If anybody found the other ones too hard, try this one. It's fun, and it's a little easier technically. Pdf is attached. Enjoy!

If you need a break from the lines festival, here's some additional ideas for tune endings!

Hi everyone. Although I´m a proud member for more than two years, this is my first video. I hope you enjoyed...and criticize!
Thank you!

A few final thoughts on using diminished sounds in lines. There's a little bit of distortion in parts of it, but not the whole time! My apologies!
