Hello everybody! This morning I had a go at Mean to Me, which for me is a tough tune to play. I think every jazz soloist of the swing and bebop eras has recorded that song : Bird, Sonny Stitt, Rollins, Dizzy, Frank Rosolino, Getz, Joe Pass, Milt Jackson, you name them ... There are really countless versions of Mean to Me. I did as best I could, at my level, but I know I have to work at it again. Cheers

I thought some may find this helpful as far as formulating a method to practice lines. Let me know if this helps!

Here is the 3rd part of a lesson series on Building a Voicing Vocabulary. This lesson, like the others, is intended to be listened to after having read the PDF which accompanies it.

I've recently discovered an excellent new software product for music notation that (I think) competes favorably with the expensive packages like Sibelius and Finale. It's called Muse Score and it is distributed as a free download. You can find it here: Muse Score.

The interface is logical and seems to be well thought out. You can save your files in a variety of formats including .pdf and .xml. As far as I can tell this product will work for anything you want to create, from a simple lead sheet to a full orchestral score.

This is the lady to whom we are eternally grateful, Karyn Posner-Mullen from the American Embassy here in Ireland, she has been so good to us for the past two years and came to our vibe hang and loved it. She is pictured here with her husband Doug. On behalf of us all at vibesworkshop.com..Karyn...a big thank you
