要聽到大調major和Dorian音階的差別,重點就在,一定要建立在同一個根音上,才聽得出來音階色彩的差別。

Never Too Old to Learn

Man! Back in the day, I used to teach Behn Gillece. He came over today and recorded some lessons and a piece for the school and I learned a ton. Behn has come into his own and is a top notch vibe player! He talked about solo playing and then how to practice chord voicings.

I added some of the stuff to my practice routine! It came around in full circle. Amazing. To be honest he's the best student I ever had. He practiced EVERYTHING I gave him and came back with ideas and questions. Some lessons he'd be talking through the whole lesson. I'd just listen to what he did.

Miceli Stoned Grip

Is it or isn't this my grip! Who knows! Someone else named and I've written the most extensively about it. Call it what you want, but I think it's a great grip to play vibes with. Sort of has the best of both worlds.

My favorite vibe player Victor Feldman uses it. That alone is enough reassurance that this is a very effective vibraphone grip. Check out the vids!
