Caravan Comping Tip

Caravan Diminished Scale Tip 

Hello everyone!

I wanted to make a more technique-oriented lesson to give a look inside how I think everyone should practice four mallets. We’ll look at permutations, interval work, and one-handed rudiments in this lesson. By doing these exercises, you’re essentially training your hands to be ready for any combination of notes you’ll ever have to play, in whichever mallets make the most sense to play with. Let me know what you guys think!

Just did this for a student.

Bb Blues.

Transcribe my solo. Do you understand it?
take the pdf and play the chord solo. memorize it and put it through keys.
MEMORIZE IT!

also memorize the solo and play that in different keys.

feel free to fix any 'wrong' notes.

For my lessons with Tony, he asked me to get some modal practice in. This has been a really fun way to learn my modes more intimately, and work on my time feel!
