Lesson

(ESP) Bienvenidx a Vibesworkshop.com ! Tuve una gran clase con un alumno mío. Estamos trabajando las posiciones abiertas y cerradas de acordes, además de utilizarlos por toda la escala. Casi siempre sugiero que se trabaje una mano a la vez, pero se nos ocurrió una alternativa que musicalmente hablando tiene sentido. Entonces, es muy simple, lo que vas a hacer es tocar Do mayor, (tan fácil no?). Vamos a tocar este acorde moviendo una mano por vez, pero la que no se mueve se queda en donde estaba, entonces muevo esta mano (la derecha) por arriba y dejo esta mano (la izquierda) abajo.

Me and drummer that will never miss a beat. Things to do with this drummer.

[ESP] Yo y un baterista que nunca se va del pulso. Cosas para hacer con este baterista.

So here's the deal.

I have a Sibelius file and a midi file and an xml file. So there's a way to use this with any notation file or even DAW that you have.

I put down chord tones on the beat. You fill in the off beats with notes from the scale (the rests).

Make musical sense. Half step below is fine. Half above has to be in the scale.
Listen to it and make changes to make it sound as good as you can. it won't sound super great but parts of it you will like and you can play. I recommend playing the whole solo.

Play along with me and Drum Genius!

Here are 2 files. One I've completed and one is for you to complete.

Write in the chords, then put notes in on the 8th note rests to make a solo (my version has it done for you to check out). Make it sound as good as you can.

If you have questions, put them below.

The files are here:

I have Sibelius files, midi files, xml files and pdfs and an audio file of my final version.

Let's figure out the first class for I'll Remember April.

How about the 15th. 7pm EST, I could also do 8pm as well.

Hey everyone,

Here's a blues block chord etude using all the diminished concepts I talked about in parts 1-3. See if you can figure out what's going on! I tried to use mostly shapes I talked about in the lessons.

Hey everyone!

I’ve got some exciting lessons for the next few months, starting with this series on diminished voicings. These three lessons will really go in depth with how you can creatively voice diminished chords, and how you can use the same shapes on non-diminished chords. Do you know the diminished major substitution? The dominant diminished substitution? The four main alterations of a diminished chord? How to use diminished shapes to play “out?” These lessons will go through all of this with a practical mindset, giving you tangible things to work on.
