Guys, I can't wait feb 25th. Recorded that, one shot, this afternoon. Basically my routine. I do that practically every week, in a practice routine.
Hope you enjoy.
Clip just released on the Vic Firth YouTube channel.
Anybody, just curious. Anyone have anything to add? i have more lessons going up.
I wonder what you're thoughts are????
In a lesson this morning, the focus was on solo vibe playing for the song "When You Wish Upon A Star". After the lesson, my student suggested that I record a quick version which illustrated some of the things addressed in the lesson. Here's a quick version that I just recorded on the phone playing one chorus of the melody only.
Here's a simple rootless voicing etude. Listen to it. Do you hear the short and longs? Work them out with the pedal.
Rootless b9 chords are easy to play. They look like a diminished chord. Well they are a diminished chord!
We work on 13th chords in this video. They are diatonic chords. All the notes are in the major scale.

我們今天來講“無根音的和聲配置”(Rootless voicing)
以G屬13和弦(G13)為例子
很多funk曲風的曲子，都是用屬和弦(dominant)。
例如屬九和弦、屬十三和弦，mixolydian 音階都可以應用在這兩個和弦上。
第一步驟，先找到適合這個G屬和絃的和聲，然後移到鐵琴的低音域區域，因為這個練習方式我們要從低音域開始敲，敲出上行音階。
第二步驟，試著敲出轉為和弦。(把最低的一顆音移到右手外棒，以此類推)。
P.S 同時這也是Bminor7b5的和聲配置，(Tony示範了Bminor7b5-E7b9-Aminor)
Here's Behn's video:

I talk here about starting the chords from a different note. Kind of cool what you get.

Título: Un pequeño pensamiento añadido al vídeo de Behn. Armonizando la escala disminuida.
En este vídeo hablo acerca de empezar los acordes desde una nota diferente. Es muy chevere lo que obtienes.
Here are some thoughts and ways to begin with rootless voicings.

Chinese translation for Chinese students.
學會如何演奏出Rootless voicing,
Step1:先找出和弦的 1,3,5,7音
Step2:去掉根音(root)，加進9音。
Step3:去掉5音，加進11, 13音。
如果是屬和絃(Dominant)通常是加入13音。
例如G13，會用9和13音。在一定保留3,7音的情況下，這個Voicing的組成音就是 F,A,B,E.
再例如Cmajor7, 去掉根音加上9音。大部份會再去掉5音，加上升11音(#11等於#4)。會得到Lydian的聲音
