I love "Question and Answer". Such a great blowing vehicle and catchy tune…
Hi Everyone !
Here is Up jumped spring I played last week for my jazz vibes exam in university of Sherbrooke (Qc).
it was very stressful to be rate, but... it's a challenge :)
Hey guys,
This is a GREAT exercise for writing, improvising, and tune learning. The idea is to write a new melody over the chord changes to an old standard tune. You can alter the harmony a little bit here and there to fit your new melody…
Ok here's my version of 'It Might As Well Be Spring'. I've included an image from my Itunes song list. You can see how many versions I still have. I probably threw out just as many. I studied the $($% out of that tune. It was so inspiring…

Ok, I know I come up with lots of ideas, and some don't make it. But heres another one.
I think I'm going to try and do office hours, like we do in college. Maybe pick a night and do a few 45 minute sessions with anyone that needs help…
Here's a continuation to the first "Cop This Lick". It's a very similar line to the first line, except that the notes for the double sticking change. PDF is attached this time.

III.Pain

Hey Vibes workshop!
Just wanted to apologize for being out for a while and letting some of the books content back up. With everything from college auditions, internships and being in a world class indoor drumline that rehearsed all weekend…
Hi everyone, I'm attaching a pdf hand out I used recently for a clinic. In it I go through an example of how one might use a combination of Cells and Upper Structure Triads to create tension and release for playing melodic lines and…
Transcribe this!
Here's a simple solo. Transcribe at least the first chorus. Does it sound like the tune? Can you play it and it sounds like the tune? Why does it sound like the tune? What's happening? Can you memorize it? Can you start…
I saw a workshop with Joe Lovano in my neighborhood last week and something he said kinda stuck with me. It was a little question and answer session between the sets and someone had asked about this apartment that Kenny Werner had in…
There's been some talk on the site lately about what should a beginner do around here. First off if you're a beginner, you need one thing on your side. That's time. You have to have a lot of time on your hands. You need to be able to go…
Hi all,
Here's a lick to work on. Sometimes, I like to use double stickings and paradiddle type rudiment patterns in lines to create a different effect. Notice that the left hand stays on the accidentals. Also, another way to practice…
Vibes are booming in France as anywhere else in the world. Classically educated guys like Frank Tortiller are establishing new standards. I really dig this. Do you ?
Here's a track from "EARMIX" wih Daniel Humair, Drums. Marvin Stamm, trumpet and Sebastian Boisseau, bass.
I kind of forgot about this project, probably because I wasn't crazy about the results. The whole album was more or less free, with…
I believe there is a very interesting fundamental difference between improvising "lines" and improvising "melodies". What do you think? Is there a discussion here?
