Fill in the chords. Study the harmony and the solo. can you see the flat 9s? all the altered notes?

GMV (Galician Music for Vibes) is a collection of lessons where I´ll try to show/share part of the traditional galician music adapted to the vibraphone (in order to improof and develope many topics). I´ve been working on it the last 6 months and my purpose is posting a new chapter every month. Through the lessons we´ll can practice melody, harmony, dampening, pedaling, solo vibes, ... I really hope you have fun and that helps you.
