Hi VW-User,
Anyone want to skype and go over the changes to Satin Doll. We would focus on Just that. So you'd have to have the changes memorized.
We would do this on Skype.
Anyone interested?

This month of February has been very rich with experiences! First our winter workshop took place in Germany. All first archives bellow. Then we finished our great lesson series with How Deep Is The Ocean and switched to our new Tune Of The Month: Satin Doll! Then a few of us participated in our very first online skype lesson with Tony. All testimonies in the discussion section… and more! Enjoy!
Oh what a night!
Tonight I did something I never thought I would do: I drove 45 minutes to a jazz club to sit in with pro musicians I barely know who've been playing longer than I've been alive. Wow...I will admit I almost chickened out, but I'm glad didn't!

Happy Birthday to David Friedman!
Ok, I have what I'll consider my first solo gig coming up. I've done a few before, but I did them because I needed the money and didn't a you know what about them. One was in a clothes store playing Christmas music. I was soooo broke. So I did it and hated every second of it. The others were a couple cocktail parties or worse Barmitzvah's. Sorry to my jewish buddy vibe players, but I HATE Barmitzvah's. A room full of kids high on soda running around like fools is not fun when you're an adult. I know it's fun for them. Ok, I digress.
Hallo everyone, thank you for such great time last week. You filled me up with soul, spirit, music ,... .I met so many wonderful persons and they all play vibes!!!! It was a pleasure to be your host and I hope you had a good time. I want to share video of my trio-concert from frieday with you. Have fun, I had a lot!!! looking forward to meet you all again, Matthias.
Hey everyone,
I had the great opportunity to do a Skype lesson with Tony, Dimitris, and Denis today (who knew Babu's real name was Denis...learn something new everyday!). Denis mentioned a lot of the reasons why it was cool in his post, but I want to highlight some things:
1) You don't need a camera on your computer to participate. If you only have a microphone on your computer, that's totally okay!
Hey guys, we just had (Dim, Carolyn and me) a skype lesson with Tony. All went good, sound clear.
That's fascinating to be able to meet people from several countries (USA, France, Greece in this case), as if everybody was in the same music room... Technology at it's best.
I think this is the future for music teaching. No one vibist will be let on his own, trying desesperately to learn alone... The vibes's malediction is over !
And all that because of M. Tony Miceli's vision years ago, hard work and generosity. One more time, thanks Tony !
We will stream some of the classes and tonight's concert (Feb 23), as well as tomorrow's classes (Feb 24) and the vibe hang ending the concert.
Keep an eye out, I'll post on the site and in the shout box.
The stream will be from here:
