So I see a bunch of University Professors here and some have been hanging out quite a bit.
I would love to try some stuff with all this technology with your percussion department. I think we're ready to design an online jazz course, we…
Hi Everyone!
I'm kind of new to this post thing but I'll give it a try ;)
I thought it would be interesting to share with you what I've been going through these past weeks. I recently injured my right hand and I haven't been able to play…
So I'm hanging online with Patty via google talk and we were talking about Mike Pinto, so i figured I'd post the vid here. I think he sounds great, and his approach is a little different. He uses those Milt mallets but holds 3 I think most…

Here's a prerequisite for the Shapes and Patterns of Music sight reading. My recommendation is to play these exercises as fast as you can but start at the beginning no matter how proficient you already are. If it's too easy, play it faster…
With all this talk about lines, I thought I'd remind everyone about some of the bebop heads. Donna Lee, Scrapple, Anthropology, these are major studies in 'the language'. Not only the language of bebop but the language of music, how things…
Phew, that's a hard tune to play solo on! I did sort of my version. I'm hoping one of you guys get the etude down and perform that. I would like that! But here's my version based on the etude!

Hey Tony, Did we pick a time for tomorrow yet? I didn't see one reading through our past messages. I'm free anytime after dinner. Would 7:30 work for you?
