December Mini Concert by Carolyn Stallard
I think the vibes sound really great in a church, and after playing a couple things at my friend's wedding this summer I decided I'd like to develop some wedding repertoire. So...for my mini concert I recorded arrangements I'm making for two standard weddings pieces. Didn't feel ready to play them in concert, but yet here they are!

Beginner's Course - Common Chord Progressions Pt. 2 by Behn Gillece
December 2018 Mini Concert
I'm playing I Love's You Porgy and Falling Grace.
I love doing mini concerts because of the challenge of playing 2 or 3 tunes without stopping.
No matter what level you are at, try doing this. Even if it's just the melody to two tunes. It's great practice!

"All The Things You Are" - Chord Tone Soloing with One Tension
Improvising on “All The Things You Are” using chord tone soloing along with one tension. For the Major and Minor chords, I’m using only tension 9 and either 9 or b9 for the Dom 7 chords. In most cases, I’m using the b9. The improv can also incorporate other tensions like the 11 and 13 as well as diatonic and chromatic approach notes. This is a fundamental and valuable improv technique covered in Volume One of The Complete Guide to Improvisation. The concept allows us to clearly sound the changes since most of the notes are chord tones.
Balafon (African log xylophone), 4-mallet improv
4-octave pentatonic Balafon from Burkina Faso. Solo concert at a club in Cambridge, MA. Just jamming with energy and groove, and adhering to the 3-minute maximum youtube required in the early days. Cheers!
