drill no.1

找適當的音階對應和弦 Putting the Scales in the Chords

你可以用這個方式想想：和弦音、和弦音以外的音，這兩種因素組成了音階。
＊以下譜例：和弦音（圖一）、和弦音以外的音（圖二）、把這兩個放在一起得到Dorian音階。

"Sophisticated Lady" by the great Duke Ellington. I've been working on this song this past week. Such a deep and beautiful composition. Some of my favorite versions are from Duke of course as well as from great pianists like Art Tatum, Keith Jarrett and Chick Corea.

This is my first real post to this site. It's just an audio from one of the first rehearsals of a song I wrote - "Cheyenne's Waltz!"

I haven't been an active member for a long time, but I'm hoping to change that. I thought I would start with a recent video of my quartet playing "footprints" at a local club. Please also check out my website and leave me some feedback. I've never made a site before and would welcome constructive criticism.

OK.. this may be getting silly. You know the drill if you checked out the first two. MP3 file is AABA starting with one mic, then switching to the other with each section. It is my hope that you can hear which is which because, this time, I have placed two VERY VERY different mics against each other.

So, in the first episode, I used two mics I considered substantially different. Tony and I discussed it a bit and we agree... as different as they are, there are a lot more similarities than differences and the differences are not in quality but rather character. Of course, assisting the musicians have exactly the correct character to their sound is what defines great recording engineers like the late Rudy Van Gelder.

SO, I think this may be more of what Tony was looking for here... I chose the AKG 414B as a comparison because it is a mic I get put on me a lot in studios that don't really record vibes a lot. It's a great mic, but you can decide if you prefer it. I will do some more comparisons in later posts to other mics.
