Today is Emilie's b-day... ('our' Emilie) and I found out too that Vid Jamnik ('our' Vid) has now his own quartet!! I told him he was not nice to hide us those kind of things... so here is a great recording of their own "Emily" version from this summer. Enjoy!! :o)
My own transcription. Comments and criticisms welcome.
I will be performing this piece on November 11th at the University of Delaware. What do you guys think? Any suggestions?
No vibes here. Powerful music by two greats!
Check out italian vibes player, Andrea Dulbecco. Wonderful player.
Just came across this article on practicing jazz by violinist Christian Howes: http://christianhowes.com/2009/10/29/perfect-practice/
Part of what he talks about is practicing what you struggle with rather than what you sound good playing. Of course we all know this is what we SHOULD be doing, but I at least find myself avoiding the hard stuff constantly, just like he describes his students doing. I try to fight myself and practice things I'm not as comfortable with, like harmonies rather than melodies, but it is a long, hard battle!
Interesting sound treatment of experimental vibraphone music.
All the sounds come from vibraphone, some had electroacoustic treatment, some are "dry".
Enjoy
Why is this called a contrafact?
