new Caribbean jazz release. JULY 1st 2015. J'ourvet .. featuring vibist Thomas Mackay and Steel Pan Artist Tom Berich..

Time

J’ourvet means Street Party at Carnival and is at the heart of

this recording. From the samba drum intro to the last reggae

tune, you will be transported to your own Caribbean island

with a street party happening just beyond the palms.

J’ourvet is the collaborative effort of steel pan artist Tom

Berich and vibraphonist Thomas Mackay. These musicians pay

homage to their love of Caribbean music, influenced by

musicians like Andy Narell, Dave Samuels, and Mike Mainieri.

This recording breathes new life into Narell’s “Izo’s Mood”

Working on Voicings

Chinese Translation for Chinese Students

這個影片是講進階版的open closed voicing.
再已經很熟悉練習過後基本的open closed voicing後,簡單可以找到drop 2(把和弦第二個音移到最上面)
就可以來練練看這個進階版的voicing 練習。
例如C,G,D,E Tony把左右手voicing交換。變成D,E,C,G, Tony稱這個為Mike Maineiri 的voicing.

再例如Cminor7: D,E,G,Bb. 右手的兩個音互換,變成D,E,Bb,G。

*找一些你喜歡的Voicing, 然後換來換去,看你會不會發現新東西。
*找到一些小的音程的voicing(小二度minor2 之類的), 把它們放到低音處(左手)。
*小提醒:盡量避免Minor9的聲響。
