Dorian is the mode that starts on the second scale degree of the major scale. So in the key of C play D to D.

Dorian和 Ionian 的不同是，Dorian 降3音降7音
Dorian是最常在爵士樂中在小調和弦(Minor chord)中用到調式。II-V-I的和聲進行，II級幾乎都是用到Dorian。
（Tony示範各種不同爵士標準曲中（Standards）出現各種不同的Dorian聲音）

The major scale is the Ionian mode.

今天要講Ionian,
就是大調音階，如果你還不熟悉，要先把每個調的大調練好再來看這支影片。
（Tony示範Ionian出現在生活中的各種聲音）
練習各種不同調式，可以用左手開始，或是右手開始，熟悉棒法。

My office got wind of me taking vibraphone lessons and asked if I was interested in getting together with some colleagues to play our company's annual Christmas party cocktail hour.

It might end up with just vibes and bass but possibly also with sax.

What tunes would you play at a Christmas cocktail hour?

Thanks,

More on my Cherokee etude! It's soooo hard.

I'm going to turn it into an etude so some of you can be miserable! I wonder if it's easier with the Stevens grip? I'm working on it and it's getting better!
