What is the common point between those three songs:
- Autumn Leaves
- Beyond the Sea
- I wish you love
N.B.: Tifoo, and maybe Pap, this one is too easy for you, please let some time for the others to answer! Thanks! :o)
Hopefully if this is after the Chris masterclass there will be a recording of it. If you don't see one, then email tony at tony@tonymiceli.com and check if there is one.
Here are 2 lessons for dominant chords.
Any jazz musician has been tripped up by the bridge of Rhythm Changes, the 4 dominant chords. It's easy to fake your way through the bridge and difficult to weave your way through the bridge.
Make sure you study dominant chords and scales and ways of getting through them!
I simply grouped to lessons that would be in two different places here for you to check out.
I have only been playing vibes for about a year. Before I started playing the vibes, I thought you just hit the vibes with the mallets and use the pedal to let it ring out or stop the sound. Since then I have learned about so many different playing techniques that I would never have imagined. For one thing, I never realized you could actually play the vibes with the pedal up.
Other techniques that I learned about are:
Mallet Dampening
Pitchbending
Hand Tremolo
Bowing
Echo emulation (ala Piper)
Spider Egg Sacks (or plastic bags) over resonators
Got rhythm?
Keep in mind this is a hang. A VERY informal get together. There were people chatting and we were playing and talking.
There are some sound problems, if you can fast forward to about 7 minutes you'll get past it.
A quick note.
I love how something can start a train of thought. That's why to me communities are so important. And I love this vibe community.
Sounds like with Joe's exercise that there's a serious study in moving intervals in a parallel way. Next moving different intervals in parallel ways. Next moving things in parallel scale ways. Next moving things in approximate parallel ways making concessions for harmony.
Beautiful!!!
This was a recent internet concert from my basement!
I think it's all of you guys, you're having an affect on me. For a while I wasn't doing a lot of listening. I don't mean transcribing or figuring stuff out, I mean listening just to listen.
I've noticed over the last few weeks that it's been really exciting to just listen to stuff!! I think it's from all the discussion around here!
Here's the link for the class, starts at 7: http://www.mogulus.com/thephillysoundlive
Larrys' going to try his class again this Wednesday night.
Larry is not a vibe player, he's a sax player and an incredible musician. Vibe players can learn a ton from Larry!
I'm not sure what he's going to cover but I'm sure it will be something great. If there's a handout I'll scan it in and post it before the class.
Come back here and I'll have the link to the workshop.
