Adding to the basic melodic minor theory lesson of 2 weeks ago. Now adding chromaticism to open up other lines/ shapes.
This is just a link to my article on my meeting with Mike Mainieri and Franck Tortiller in Paris in November 2012.
I only wanted to have it added to my album of wonderful meetings! The original article is on Mike's page on the site and you can put posts only in one v-book.
Man... that year 2012 was really special! :o)
This is just a link to my article on Gary's concert in Paris I had the chance to attend in April 2012.
I only wanted to have it added to my album of wonderful meetings! The original article is on Gary's corner virtual book on the site and you can put posts only in one v-book.
Clip of Bluesette from Berklee Summer Percussion Festival concert that took place in June 2014. I just found this in the video library and it hadn't been previously posted up on YT. There are some other clips from the concert up on my YT channel.
It's always a treat for me to play with these fantastic guys and musicians. Billy Novick - clarinet, Mark Carlsen - upright bass and Steve Langone - drums.

用到共同音（common tone）和最高音聲部（upper voice）去建造這個和聲配置（voicing）
打開PDF，在PDF 中，用到的是F調，我們取5音（C）當作是我們最高音聲部。
整首的和聲配置都會保持高音聲部在C，其他和聲配置的音，也都會照著這個規則去建造。
有一個地方例外，第六小節，B diminished，其實如果很想要照著規則走，也可以把第六小節改成Bb7，
但是有時候改變一點小地方，可以督促我們思考更多，你可以得到更多idea。
注意第4, 8小節，這兩個小節其實是同樣的和聲配置，原因是因為半全減音階同時會經過四個和弦（in the diminished cycle）
*半全減音階Dominant diminished scale 這個音階同時會經過四個和弦，也就是F7, Ab7b9 B7b7, D7#11b9 (他們之間差小三度).
所以你可以互換這些和弦，因為它們都建立在同一個音階。
雖然最高音聲部都保持在同一個音，但是你聽聽看，還是可以聽到很多變化，所以等到你可以自由的演奏最高音聲部時，

There we go again! :o)
Christos Rafalides is in Paris these days for a fews gigs with a trio... and I had the chance to have him for my "traditional" lunch break vibes sharing... and the traditional picture in front of the Invalides Dome!
For the record, I first met Christos some 6 years ago in Paris too, for one of his gigs... and in fact he was the very first picture of my beautiful collection! What a pleasure to meet again and spend some nice moment chating!!
Am I not lucky? :o)
This is an old track that I found in the video library which wasn't released. Nice tune to play with some four to the bar left hand. Some of my favorite pianists in this style would be Art Tatum, Fats Waller, George Shearing, Errol Garner, Teddy Wilson, Dave McKenna and Oscar Peterson.

Crazy amount of snow here today and it's still coming down now since yesterday. At home shoveling and practicing today. Thought this old clip from my PASIC 2006 Austin clinic would be appropriate. :)
