Hey VW,

I had some GoPro footage from a gig that I wanted to share, as it shows some of the midi sounds and fx I am working on... I've had a bunch of questions about that, which I haven't really gotten to. Hope to share more when I can.

Cheers,
Steve

Hello,
Sometimes I practice solo vibraphone outside of a tune or a form. That way I can practice comping melodies without worrying if its the wrong chord or melody. I think this is an interesting way to work on things.
thanks!

Chinese translation for Chinese students

大七和弦四度和聲配置：

以Fmajor7 為例子，和聲配置是從七音開始演奏的E, A, D, G，保持四度的和聲配置。

如果要熟記這個和聲配置，放到12個調裡，熟悉每一個調，

並且放到ii-V-I的和絃進行練習，效果最好。

這個四度的和聲配置也許會有一點點失去明確調性的感覺。所以演奏完後，敲擊一下根音，可以幫助聽清楚和弦性質和調性。

I'm working on a travel grant application (through the Canada Council for the Arts), so that I can attend the Delaware workshop this summer. The application required three recent recordings, so it was a great opportunity to get into the studio and put something together, which I have been meaning to do for a while since I started playing vibes. I'm a student at the University of Arizona, and there is a studio in the music building, which worked out well. The three tunes are "How Deep is the Ocean?", "Darn that Dream", and "Kind Folk".

Here's a chorus on the changes to Autumn Leaves. Pay close attention to the articulation.
