Check out the guys warming up in Delaware! We have a great group from all over the world!
Hello fellow vibes players. I've been posting a lot of detailed lessons with PDFs the last few weeks, but something I've also been intending to do is just jump on once in a while and share a little idea of something that I find helpful, so here goes.
Get on your computer and check out David Friedman and Bob Becker this Wed., August 3, 2011 at 6pm! UTC/GMT -5 hours
We will be live from the University of Delaware.
You're welcome to come to the University of Delaware and hang with us, in person!
Open house for our Delaware workshop this Wednesday. Open house starts at around 1pm.
Then if that's not enough!
We'll stream a vibe hang from the U of Del featuring David Friedman and Bob Becker. That will start at 6.
Here's the link to the Hall on the U of Del campus, where we'll be!
Here is the 3rd part of a lesson series on Building a Voicing Vocabulary. This lesson, like the others, is intended to be listened to after having read the PDF which accompanies it.

I've recently discovered an excellent new software product for music notation that (I think) competes favorably with the expensive packages like Sibelius and Finale. It's called Muse Score and it is distributed as a free download. You can find it here: Muse Score.
The interface is logical and seems to be well thought out. You can save your files in a variety of formats including .pdf and .xml. As far as I can tell this product will work for anything you want to create, from a simple lead sheet to a full orchestral score.
Life has gotten in the way of my music interests but I still try to get to my music room a couple of times a week.
Well, apparently I led a good life because the only explanation for the performance I've just seen is that I've died and gone to heaven :-). I'm just back from seeing Ed Saindon and Joe Locke perform in duo, and I'm blown away. Going with two vibraphones instead of vibes and marimba, they both got to play to their full and considerable expressiveness.
It was great to finally meet Joe in real life, and to catch up with Ed and his wife Pam. I'm really glad I could make it to the performance.

I've fallen in love with the tune Recordame by Joe Henderson. I can play the chords and melody for the tune nicely and can improv it acceptably too. I've transcribed the melody for the intro section off the CD and I've gottem most of the chords but there are a few that escape me.
Can anyone give me the chords for the intro section of this tune? I'd surely appreciate it.
