I love the tune Recado Bossa Nova. My fav part is the Eb to A. What a cool sound.
I wrote a very detailed (for me) etude with sticking. So you can really see how I think of things. I try to take a very minimalist approach to the vibes (most of the time).
Notice how the harmony works and there is not a lot of chords. I think this works as a solo piece which means you don't need a lot of notes and chords for a solo piece.
Keep in mind, since making these videos, I now play the Dmaj 7 in the 7th bar. I got schooled by David Friedman for doing it the Bill Evans way and now I love the Dmaj7 and know the history of the tune!

This lesson introduces a new variation, a more syncopated approach to bossa nova comping over the A section of Wave. Designed to deepen rhythmic phrasing and hand independence, this variation more closely simulates the natural, flowing feel of authentic bossa guitar patterns—adapted for vibraphone.
Take notes and make sure you can follow me!
