Since posting this ad below, I have learned the pedal works but only thanks to duct tape ANd that the cover is not an original but that it was always "kept covered."
A quick and dirty video lesson. I shot this while in Ireland. The sound is not great and it's EARLY in the morning, I'm tired as you can see!
Here's a vibes/bass duo version of It Could Happen To You. This was the opening of my recent clinic presentation for the Summer Performance Program faculty at Berklee in Boston.
Here's a short clip of a recent clinic presentation at Berklee for the Summer Performance Program faculty. The presentation was on improv concepts and covered Tension Resolution, Four Note Groupings and Major 7 #5 Superimposition. I discussed the concepts and then played some written out solos that utilized the concepts. It might be helpful to follow the written out solos as I'm playing them on the piano.
Writing out solos based upon a specific improv concept can he helpful in assimilating the concept in one's playing. I have my students do that and it can be very effective.

Although we're working hard we are having fun in Ireland. Although I'm married I could resist a little fun with this beautiful Irish woman. Please nobody tell my wife, I just couldn't resist!!!
Although I'm leaving Monday I did get her email address and we will keep in touch.
John Daly makes the whole Ireland workshop happen! I am so grateful for him for all of his support, and I know all the other players involved in the workshop are as well. John is a dynamo of energy, I can't believe how he just keeps going!
He's the best! Here he is warming up with a blues.
When John wanted to learn improv he realized there were no classes in Limerick.... so..... John started a class and it's been going for over 2 years now. John is amazing!
Doug is an up and coming percussion from the U of Cincinnati. He's a musical cat and he's getting into jazz!
