TOTM - Intros - Days Of Wine and Roses Intro

Play the last 8 bars!

Chinese translation for Chinese students

其實這樣的Intro不只可以用在Days of Wine and Roses,最後8小節當作intro的方式,是一種很普遍演奏Intro的方式。
Aminor A7(增加色彩) \ Dminor \Bminor7b5 \Bb7(or E7) \ Aminor7 D7 \Gminor7 C7 \ FMajor7 \C13 or Calt. \

Intro的功能,是讓觀眾聽到曲子的鋪陳,所以盡量明確的給出和弦的性質,
必要的時候,也可以演奏根音,讓觀眾的耳朵先熟悉聲音。
另外intro一定要明確的讓樂團跟到,音樂走向(和弦\節奏)不夠清楚的話,
樂團中其他團員會很困惑,不知道什麼時候要進音樂。
你可以模仿Tony的節奏,或者是聽出他用怎麼樣的Voicing, 或著是她加上了什麼樣的旋律線條在其中。
試著去模仿。

Tampico, Mexico; Drugs, Rootbeer the Omega and Mike Balter

Rootbeer Lozano is one of a few vibe players I know down in Tampico, Mexico.

I met them in Patagonia and watched her school percussion ensemble play a beautiful concert. One of the best of the week! The group is led by Evaristo Aguilar an amazing teacher, percussionist. Their music is so heartfelt!

It's a drug cartel town. We went out to dinner and the first 2 restauraunts we went to were closed. I mean the owners ran away because they were approached by the cartel. Another we drove by had bullet holes all through the front of the building.
