It looks like we're over the 3000 mark with posts! That's a lot of information on the vibraphone!
Just thought I'd announce that.
When I saw Dana's post of his 'Un-structured improv I thought that's cool. We have a little wave of free improv going.
I posted that electronic stuff and now Dana posted this. Then I thought that would be cool if others just played whatever on their instrument and posted the outcome.
Playing free and using your ears to move the harmony is a great way to grow musically!
So the challenge is to post your own 'Un-structured improv'.
Merry Christmas!
A friend of mine sent this to my Facebook page. Enjoy!
Ok, so trying to run a site and practice can cause marital problems.
My wife was on my case big time about not doing enough around the house. I don't have time, I said. But she kept the verbal abuse coming. So I bought a Roomba.
As I write this I'm actually cleaning my upstairs. You see I told her I'd take over the vacuuming and she agreed. So I went out and bought a Roomba which is a robot vacuum cleaner. So now I can practice and clean at the same time.
Now she's saying that that doesn't count, but she's not going to win that one!
Hi Workshoppers,
Just stopping by to say Happy Holidays to all!
Here is a live performance of an arrangement of My Funny Valentine. This was the first tune we played at this gig and we were having all sorts of issues with sound and monitoring levels ...... basically we couldn't hear each other so its pretty loose at first, but thought I'd share it anywyay to give you an idea of the sound of the group and concept of my latin jazz project Latin Vibe. Plus my piano player kept comping all the time even though we worked out to take it in turns !!!
Dave Kemp's arrangement of Milestones for his Latin Jazz project - Latin Vibe. Live performance at the Valley Jazz Festival 2009 at the Judith Wright Centre in Brisbane Australia.
