Players,
As a dedicated music lover, but a non-musician, I have always had these questions and here is a great opportunity to ask them. If these topics have been covered before, I apologize.
How much, if at all, do lyrics affect your playing a tune? Is it important to you to read the lyrics when learning a song, if you don't already know them? How important is it to know the history of the song; if it was written for a movie or play, what the movie/play was about? Or is the emotional content of the tune relayed to you through the notes sufficient?
Hi there,
I´m often on tour and I try to view vibesworkshop on my iphone, but I can´t see any videos.
Is there a possibility to view them?
Thanks,
Altfrid
Today I was trying to commit Girl from Ipanema to memory and realized that, for vibes, the key of Bb is much better than the key of F.
I am looking for an open minded mallet percussionist in the Minneapolis area
There are two central concepts
1- My experimental project called "PyroPlasticFlow"
2- A lounge band with the mallet percussionist as the lead instrument
Both would be electronically based with a complete multi-media package including video projection
The first would satisfy the artistic need
The second would earn us enough money for me to buy you a Mallet Kat (if you don't already have one)
I thought I'd try recording a video of stride playing Ive been working on. But I cannot get any audio on the iMovie.
I use the iSight camera in the iMac and iMovie.
I can see the input level working fine. But it does not record.
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks
Hi all,
I am thinking about/planning my December/holiday radio show ("Good Vibes")
and am looking for jazz with vibes appropriate to the Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa season. Any ideas? I've got a few, looking for more. This program will air on December 5th, 2010.
I know this is very early for a program in December. It takes time to gather, research, listen to CDs (several times), and then decide what to play. I am also working on several shows at once (Sept, Oct, Nov too). Since I tape a few weeks early, there is less time than you might think!
Good Vibes
Last night I played a jazz jam session at La Rose Club in Germantown, with my friend and drummer Rob Henderson. He has created a recurring seesion at La Rose that's been going on for several months now, blending the new and upcoming players, with us oldheads! I had the pleasure of playing with, and listening to some of the finest playing I've ever heard from several young pups (as my dad would call them), several under the age of 20, all of whom I'm old enough to be their father, maybe even grandfather!
Hello VW,
