This version of My Wild Irish Rose is inspired by pianist Keith Jarrett. I love how he subtly shifts keys on familiar tunes. This version is an example of playing a tune by ear and then looking for interesting ways to change keys. I decided not to improvise on this one — just played the melody in slightly different ways that seemed to fit each key. Every chorus is the same, yet slightly different each time.

Hey Vibesworkshoppers!

Just put up a clip from a really fun trio gig I did here in NYC a few weeks back. I love playing vibes trio w just bass and drums and it was a treat to play with a really top rhythm section of Clarence Penn and Joe Martin.
Thanks for listening!

A little shedding before classes at Berklee this morning. Solo vibraphone playing on the Gershwin classic "Embraceable You".

This for my student, but it's for all. it's a VERY QUICK and dirty chord version of Fly Me To The Moon. Done in about 15 minutes. Good enough for what Frank needs, but you're welcome to check it out.
