What a great tune Flamenco Sketches is for working on chords and chord melodies. There is no melody so it's all you! I love practicing this tune.

We are trying something different this year in Germany. Instead of the big full blown workshop, we thought to try a two day intense workshop for players who want to quickly gather a lot of information. There will be handouts, and workshop topics to focus on specific areas of vibe playing. Then you take all this info home and practice!

A beautiful song my pianist Keith Jarrett. I remember seeing him do this and "Country" live on SNL in the 70s. It was incredible. His album with his European band playing this is also fantastic.

I have a buddy that picks a tune each week and sends out an email with a bunch of curated videos about the tune.

So I thought I'd post them here for everyone to see. And if you're interested you can check out the videos.

The tune is Humpty Dumpty the person is a great bass player, Tim Lekan. He used to live near me and now lives in Cincinnati I think. Also a great friend.

A very simple idea, but check out the pdf and work this through all the keys.

If you're more advanced try and figure ways to solo on this as well.
