We should wrap up the chord and harmony festival, huh???

What about we get into lines. A bebop tune a week for 8 weeks. Play analyze and talk about the tune.

I'm just learning Little Willie Leaps and it's such a cool tune. The thing about bebop heads is you get to FEEL what a great solo feels like, don't you? Basically the bebop heads are refined solos.

Hi evrybody!
I've been working on this Waltz for Debby this time, and have just recorded this video today.
the main point was to keep the comping "left hand" as clean and effective as possible and try not to loose the waltz motion during all the tune.
Thanks to David Friedman for the precious advices he gave me on this tune in Berlin. I hope you will like it :-)

Hello. This is a new lesson on the chords and harmony festival 2011. I am talking about how you can play a minor melodic chord or scale over a maj 7 chord. I hope you find this helpfull. If there are any questions, let me know.

Thank you

Dimitris

Looking for a good set of mallets for a big band. I was looking at maybe the Joe Locke quickflies, (mike balter 47r), any suggestions?

Benn working on this a while, still lots to work on but I said I would post something (Marie threatened me haha) comments welcome

This is a tune I recorded a while back just foolin around a bit here, like the tune would welcome suggestions on ideas to work on

What do you see when you play the vibes. What's your perspective?

I always saw it as a guitar or even a violin (after studying Bach). Never really saw it as a piano. But yes it looks like a piano and there are many similar things. I guess since I great up playing guitar, that that's where that comes from.

Hello Nico,

Have you ever considered supplying wider pedals ( in a DIY kit ) for MUSSER M55s and M48s ?

Hey guys,
hope everybody is well.
I'm playing in Switzerland with Latin-Jazz Pianist Hector Martignon and his Quartet from November 16th to 19th and I'm looking for an instrument. Please let me know if there is anyone that can lent me or rent me a vibraphone.
