Just check out his four mallet playing. I've hung with him and talked about this with him. He thinks in a different way about harmony and I think it's incredible. He's not worried about roots or anything, he's just gliding up and down the keyboard.

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.

Hey my peeps,

French classical music fits great to impro.

Here's the plan:

Today is March 15th: Deadline is March 25th.

Play this track. Wear headphones when you record. Don't record the track.

Count off with the 2 bar intro. But count like this. 2,3,4,1,2. Make sure your counting is on. Then play 2 choruses of a blues solo audio or video.

Then send it to me. After March 25 I'll put it together with my backing tracks and make a video out of it.

If you are in, please put your name in the comments.

When you send me the file title it like this.
Blue-YOURNAME

Since I have to stay home except for a bit of shopping and walks around the beautiful park in my neighborhood I decided to record something each day of Corona house arrest. I'm starting today. This is a blues with the left hand doing "four on the floor". Hope you like it.

Hi vibes friends,
in this lesson we will talk about McCoy Tyner and his amazing harmonic concept applied to modal tunes based on sparse chords.
We will discuss about quartal voicings, so what voicing and harmonization of modal scales using those harmonic stuctures.
Have fun
