GMV (Galician Music for Vibes) is a collection of lessons to practice many topics on vibraphone through traditional galician music.

I made this for my student Nathan, but I'd love to see who else wants to do this.

I play All Blues with an Aebersold recording. You play the melody and at the end. I solo first. You comp for me and I comp for you. Comp in the lower octave and solo in the middle and up high as much as you can. That way we will stay out of each others way a bit.

在練習“左手演奏bass line不間斷”，是幫助加強獨立控制的技巧。
這一集比較不同的是，要自己創造出一條bass line,因為前幾集都是演奏固定的音。

這集開始，要移動左手了。
（tony示範演奏）你可以把tony的 bass line 學起來，也可以創造你自己簡單的bass line。
當你set好一個固定的bass line 後，右手可以開始即興（或右手左手一起即興），
有時候因為演奏旋律，而忽略掉bass 音沒關係（因為左手去幫忙右手演奏旋律），
但切記還是保持節奏感，跟到下一個音就ok。
創造出自己的bass line然後保持不間斷的演奏，是這集的重點。
