Sure it's C/C# but it's a bunch of other chords. The thing about the vibes is since we omit the root and even the fifth we can reuse voicings for other chords. So name them.

It seems to me that 9/11 had a profound effect on the music business. I've never heard that talked about. As I remember it was after 9/11 that all the New York gigs fell apart. No one was going outside. All the clubs started doing the door for musicians. I heard of one club where you had to tell the guy at the door you were here to see the band or the money would not go to the band!!

A good exercise for minor/dominant vocabulary.

I feel like i've been on a treasure hunt lately. I've been looking for grad schools to apply to for Jazz Vibraphone (graduate level). Im not finding a big list here, and was hoping some of you guys would have a better idea as to wear i could consider applying?
So far i know of: Manhattan (locke), UArts (miceli), Queens (rafalides).
Know of any others?

When you come into rehearsals what do you expect to happen? Do you have order to your rehearsals? Is there a leader, or does everyone just work together?
For me personally, i prefer to walk in with a set idea of what to do. Whether its running through tunes we as a group are all familiar with, or running through an arrangement idea someone had.

My practice space mascot. Needed something to replace that picture of vibe springs I posted earlier.

Two springs hooked together.

Anyone going to see Gary play on the 27th?? Maybe we get one big table??

I recorded this with Mark;s bass line after I got the count in sorted, and put a harmony line on top, tried to keep it strictly to the notes but of course played few pinky's anyway here it is. Comments welcome
