Rhythm Changes, only lines -V

For me the ability to phrase on the vibraphones is essential to communicating one's musical message. Nuance of attack, length of notes, dynamics within 2,3 or 4 notes, combining legato, staccato within a phrase, varying space within ideas; all these nuances are tools and when used musically, give your message life and depth. I love working on these concepts using changes to standards or just playing free. I've chosen rhythm changes here because they're familiar, and a medium swing feel. Swinging eighth notes are also a way to phrase lines.
