I've been taking lessons from another local vibes player around here and, and in lieu of Tony's TOTM, asked if we could do a duet on Just In Time - here it is! Thought it'd be good to share as we're all working on the tune.

Any critique or comments are appreciated! Kinda messed up the melody at the very beginning but that's life.

(Also sorry for the bad camera angle, was mostly recording for just audio initially)

Liam made his first MalletKat video , but never posted it, so I am.

Some choruses based upon Tony Miceli's written out chorus which is available for download from The Vibes Workshop. The first chorus is Tony's written out solo while the subsequent choruses are improvised using some of Tony's specific notes, phrases and ideas from his written out solo. Tony's solo was posted as "Orthinology Simple Solo" very recently.

I hope you're working on Just In Time.

No matter what level you are at, it's worth it to work along with us.
Even just learning the melody and the chords is something.

If you're knew at this, read through one of the etudes or solos. Think about the chords and what's happening. Maybe you will have questions.

That brings us to the pop up class for subscribers. Here's a chance for us to come together and talk about stuff, around this tune (Just In Time).

Hey All,
Put December 5th on your calendar for the December edition of Good Vibes. 8pm eastern,
jazzon2. And Dec 8 at 4pm.
There's a sprinkling of holiday/winter tunes, a dash of standards, a dollop of rock and pop remakes on Where Jazz Goes and my always interesting patter. Learn why the theme song from Frasier, played by Gary Burton and Friends, is named "Tossed Salad and Scrambled Eggs."
Shows are also posted after they air on JazzOn2 on mixcloud.com. Search Good Vibes with Gloria Krolak.

I just bought a used A=440 Yamaha YV-3710. Love the sound, and the motor is absolutely silent. I am playing along with iReal Pro live in the room from my computer speakers picked up by my AMT 404 mics -> Mackie 802-VLZ3 mixer -> Focusrite Scarlet 2i2 -> Audacity. Mike Balter 23BB mallets.

Enjoy,
Barry

Hey All,
I'm just holding myself accountable here by following through with posting assignments Tony has given me on my zoom lesson with him from Sept. Tony has been great in helping me stay focused with my practice time as I continue to try and learn the vibes.

1. In my last post I shared a bebop etude. This is the duet that goes with it that I overdubbed over the original. Same rules apply here. I have to look at the page and not the instrument while playing.

2. Here are links to David Friedman's dampening etudes 5 and 6:

So I teach some Argentinian students online. We always put on live captioning in Zoom.

Maybe you guys know this, but why not turn on zoom when you are watching a VW lesson.
Screen share the screen. Now you can watch the video and see the live captioning below.

Is that a good idea? Just thought I'd pass it on. It does not translate (yet), but you can at least here and read the english.

What do you think?
