Vibraphone

David Liebman is the man. I have heard lots of stories of him getting really dark with students, and who knows how true these claims are... but every time I have heard him speak on jazz or other topics he has been eloquent and polite. I found this "speech" of him talking on practicing. Nothing we haven't all heard before, but still a great reinforcement!

Check out some of the guys at our workshop in Holland! We are having a great time!

A simple tip that will help expand language on a half diminished chord.

Vibe hang this Sunday! Should be a lot of fun. We'll be here in Sassenheim, NL at the vanderplas factory for a 2012 workshop. Come checkout and support all the players that came for this great event!

And of course we'll get David Friedman to play a couple tunes. Check it out if you can.

If I have all this right:

Holland 6pm
England 5pm
Philadelphia 12pm
California 9am

I have been slack on posting. Melody arrangement and rubato "comping". Suggestions/criticism is as always welcome and encouraged.
