Softly As In A Morning Sunrise - working out some lines and improv concepts this morning on this classic song.
Today I showed up at AJR Metal Works parking lot (Dallas) for an impromptu concert to demonstrate and play a couple pieces for the great employees who helped machine parts for my two vibraphones - USA Vibe and Antarctic Vibe. This (obviously) is my USA vibe. At one of many visits to have parts made, I often heard that the employees rarely get to see the finished product and enjoy the fruits of their labor. So, I decided that when this vibe is ready to play, I'd drop in on them.
After viewing the video, check out the attached PDF. See where you can apply this great sound to the study tune I created. Post your results by Friday morning and I will check in :)
