John

Watch John set up and pack up his vibes. From a pros perspective this is a great thing! 3 minutes each way!

Here's a vibes/bass duo version of It Could Happen To You. This was the opening of my recent clinic presentation for the Summer Performance Program faculty at Berklee in Boston.

Here's a short clip of a recent clinic presentation at Berklee for the Summer Performance Program faculty. The presentation was on improv concepts and covered Tension Resolution, Four Note Groupings and Major 7 #5 Superimposition. I discussed the concepts and then played some written out solos that utilized the concepts. It might be helpful to follow the written out solos as I'm playing them on the piano.

Writing out solos based upon a specific improv concept can he helpful in assimilating the concept in one's playing. I have my students do that and it can be very effective.

John Daly makes the whole Ireland workshop happen! I am so grateful for him for all of his support, and I know all the other players involved in the workshop are as well. John is a dynamo of energy, I can't believe how he just keeps going!

He's the best! Here he is warming up with a blues.

When John wanted to learn improv he realized there were no classes in Limerick.... so..... John started a class and it's been going for over 2 years now. John is amazing!

Doug is an up and coming percussion from the U of Cincinnati. He's a musical cat and he's getting into jazz!

Jordi is from the Canary Islands and is a great Latin percussionist. He was out playing congas with local groups here in Ireland the second night he was here!

He's getting into the vibes now and has a great feel. I dug his Stefan Harris mallets and just ordered a set from Steve Weiss!

I seem to get all the hard math questions and then I just give up.
