Words being wholly inadequate
Music is the language of the spirit
Between the notes
The greatest impact
Reflection, time, color
Silence is played
Stewards of passion
The spirit alive and well
Words being wholly inadequate
Music is the…

Here is part 2 of the intro to cells.
I explore using cells over an upper extension triad.
In this example I use a dominant 7th chord with a maj triad built off the 6th.
Please ask questions!
I am still playing Estate. Here are a couple of solo versions (1 chorus each). I'd like to get your opinions on the feel of each. I have been working on trying to keep better time, without relying on BIAB. Is the pulse OK, too much,…

For those who were in Sassenheim (and those were not too!), here is an excerpt from a CD just about to be released, of a cool reggae group of young musicians from Berlin. And among them is our dear…
Barry posted a version of Estate, A lovely tune. I recorded this with a trio also a few years ago and thought I'd share this too.
Let me know what you think Barry?

Nacada is a lesser known tune written by Pat Metheny many years ago. I don’t think it has been recorded very much. It has a very short form, a mere 8 bars long. Yet it provides lots to work with when arranged as a solo piece or played with…
Hey Guys,
As I've been away most of the time lately I thought I'd give an update on what I'm busy with, and that's the reason that I'm not online much.
So I had two really great gigs last couple of weeks. One was with a trio(vb-bs-git). A…
Man, there are so many of us here now. I keep think of ways for us all to work and grow together.
So here's my pitch: The Summer of 2010 will be 'The Summer of Vibes'. Let's play for each other this summer. Let's play little concerts for…

This is my attempt at the tune Spain there are a few mistakes here and there I have played it better but here it is anyway, all comments welcome, I am working on a solo as well.

Here's a chord etude based on a blues. I tried to use the 'comping sideways idea'. That is moving up and down the scale that would go with the chord.
As with all etudes (IMHO) make them sound good and change whatever you want. But in the…
I want to acknowledge the life of a teacher and friend who passed away suddenly at the age of 61 last week Saturday May 8, 2010.
I started takeing drum lessons from Terry when I was 7 yrs. old. I continued with him until I was 15 yrs old…

Guys,
As you know Tony is out for the week end... But it doesn't mean it's holidays!
So what are you doing here reading this stupid message: go and check all the lessons, posts, vids, audios, get back to your mallets and go practice!!
The…
I like the sound of hard mallets from the audience. And they totally cut through don't they? That seems like a pretty loud drummer and those vibes are coming right through!
Hello everyone, still uploading videoclips from a recent quartet gig that featured Rick DiMuzio on sax, Mark Walker on drums, Bruno Raberg on bass and me on vibes. Here's one that we just uploaded. Ed
