Another great lesson by Gary Burton! This is another masterclass! - Tony Miceli
A few months ago, as I was playing my YV2700 Yamaha vibraphone, the rotators stopped spinning and my control lights were kinda sputtering. I reached down to check the motor pullies and they were "frozen". No way could I get the belts operating and I had to play the rest of the gig with no rotation.
Venezuelan vibraphone player Alfred Naranjo joins the Venezuelan Expressions concert at the New Freedom Theater for a concert fusing traditional folklore rhythms with the music from the Caribbean, jazz and with some elements of classical music. They are joined by local bass player Jason Fraticelli. This is a unique opportunity to hear how these exciting south american musicians continue to merge influences while keeping the flavor of their folk music strong. Alfred is a very creative composer and improviser and worth taking the time to hear both as a soloist and ensemble member.
Check out this line up tomorrow!

Here's another amazing video from Gary Burton. He talks about solo playing using his infamous tune Chega De Saudade!
This is a really great lesson! --Tony Miceli
Gary sent me this lesson to post on the site. It's a great lesson on solo playing. (I think part 2 is on the way)
I think it's really incredible that he is taking the time to do this for us! - Tony Miceli

While trying to think up new lessons to post on the site I many times think of something and think, 'Oh man I already did that!'. However many of these lessons are buried. So I thought this would be 'FAVORITE LESSON WEEKEND'. Dig up an old lesson and tell us why it was helpful to you. That is if you have a moment!
So find a lesson that really helped you, put a comment on the lesson and explain why and how it helped you. Then we can all see. Also I can see what people dug and where to go with the lessons!
