Hello Vibes Workshop!

Hello All,
I wanted to post to say hello to everyone on that subscribes to this site. Quite frankly this is possible the coolest website I have ever come across. A sense of community is present and the information exchange is awesome. Above all, we can all help each other to become better players and teachers. I am happy there is a place for vibists to hang or just check out others work.

All the Best to you and yours,

Timothy

RIP Terry Breese

I want to acknowledge the life of a teacher and friend who passed away suddenly at the age of 61 last week Saturday May 8, 2010.

I started takeing drum lessons from Terry when I was 7 yrs. old. I continued with him until I was 15 yrs old and had a friendship with him through out my life. Terry was an excellent teacher, always encouraging, supportive and gave me a good reality check a couple of times when I needed it. He was never demeaning, just a regular guy, and a very nice and caring one at that.

Four Note Groupings, Part Two

Hello Everyone, here's Part Two of the Four Note Groupings article which will be appearing in the upcoming June issue of the Percussive Arts Society magazine Percussive Notes. This article addresses the use of four note groupings on Dom 7 chords as well as the application of the four note grouping concept on two choruses of Stella by Starlight. Thanks to Gustavo for putting the music examples into Finale.
