Still the same concert we did in quartet with french musicians Éric Barret on saxs, Stéphane Kerecki on bass and canadian drummer Karl Jannuska. This tune is extracted from "Carmen" the opera by G. Bizet.

Here's a video we did in quartet with french musicians Éric Barret on saxs, Stéphane Kerecki on bass and canadian drummer Karl Jannuska. In this group we play my compositions, I hope you like it guys !!

Sleigh Ride with John Hill on guitar, and me on MaliletKat is getting there. Missing an Fmajor chord at the end. Hoping to move on to some jazz standards with John. Definitely great to work with a guitar player.

Hey all!

This question is specifically targeted at Tony, but I figured I would post it here so that everyone can benefit.

My question is this....

When playing solo vibraphone and you want to play general harmony, then does it a good idea (or even almost necessary) to start accompanying the specific harmony for yourself?

hello,

i try learn some new tunes so one of these is solar. play in 12 keys, melody solo and comping and then a final track. next tune propably will be four...

thanks

Here's my pt. 2 to "Accompany Yourself".

Here's "Triste" from my trio gig last Friday night with Mike Ball on bass and Jack Morash on drums. It's a little noisy -- I had the record levels too low and so I had to boost it. Sounds OK on earbuds but it seemed a little distorted on my car CD player. Hope it works. Enjoy :-).

My final this year in improv class is simple. Students will play Have You Met Miss Jones in 4 keys. Head, Solo, Head. Sounds like it could be simple. But for them it proves to be very difficult.

They have to play in time, and they play solo and they have to make the changes. Those three things in combination are apparently difficult. Well no apparently. Those are difficult things to pull off. Keeping everything in time, and making your line sound like the tune and doing it all yourself with no help.

Another track from my friend's (the bass player) Thelonious Monk Institute Audition Tape.
