You know the drill. This is the tune Four.
You write in the chords, study my voicings.
Are they rootless?
What parts of the chords are there.
Then play it.
The second chorus is a simple solo outling the harmony.
Write in the chords and extensions for the pdf.
Learn them, play them closed and open them.
Play my solo, your solo comp the chords.

Remember if you want to take the class:
For me the ability to phrase on the vibraphones is essential to communicating one's musical message. Nuance of attack, length of notes, dynamics within 2,3 or 4 notes, combining legato, staccato within a phrase, varying space within ideas; all these nuances are tools and when used musically, give your message life and depth. I love working on these concepts using changes to standards or just playing free. I've chosen rhythm changes here because they're familiar, and a medium swing feel. Swinging eighth notes are also a way to phrase lines.
