Joe locke recently posted an great article from a keyboard article that was based on concepts with the Minor penatonic scale.
using the Cmin pentatonic C Eb F G Bb this scale can be used over the following chords .. Cm7 Dbmaj7 Fsus7 and Aalt7 i made a play along progression based on these chords and improvised over them using this scale ..
the progression is Aalt7 / Dbmaj7/ Fsus7/ Cmin7...
fun stuff .. how to work this into all 12 keys
Trio exceptional, quality of recording, belissima musica (IMHO) Enjoy !
Improvising on the B Minor Double (Sonata II) from Bach's Sonatas and Partitas for Violin Solo. One of my favorite books of music from Bach which is perfect for vibists. Fun and great practice improvising over the changes to classical pieces like this. Sometimes I'll do this with my students at Berklee. We'll select a piece of music, analyze the progression, write in the chord progression and begin to improvise.
hey,
i just was asked to arrange some pop tunes for percussion ensemble. i tried to figure out a good marimba comping for billy jean by m. jackson. since we got only vibes,marimba and xylo as voices i need to put as much in it as possible. so i stumbled on this cheap sounding but very hard to play independence thing (at least for me)....on piano this would be so easy :)
would you like to play it fast for 4 minutes also on different chords? :)
