Working on the classic "Alice in Wonderland" in a practice session this past week while focusing on several solo vibraphone techniques for playing in 3/4. I was inspired way back by Bill Evans' classic interpretation of this song on the Live at the Village Vanguard recording with Bill, Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian.
I'm planning on recording a tutorial at some point dealing with playing solo vibraphone on 3/4 tunes. There are a quite a few things to think about and work on in this area.

Here's some context from the major-minor interchange lessons. Notice how the lines from the lesson can apply to different chord qualities, such as major and minor, rather than just over the dominant chords. Enjoy!
I'll with bass and guitar tonight talking about playing in a trio and comping with another chord player.
