Another Lesson with ideas for mixing up practice of scales. This one is an idea for the diminished scale.
-Tyler

far from perfect but at least i wanted to post a final of the work i invested in the scrapple from the apple...goal was for me to play it in time and put some double stops in the melody and play it solo vibes.

Check out my solo in All the things you are. Another great sunday today where we hang out with tony and other uarts students!

Hi All,
I welcome some new (to me) vibes players in the March show; Gary Shapiro (sorry it took me so long, Gary), Martin Fabricius, Ray Alexander, and Dave Hagedorn. Also, a musician who calls himself Mr. Ho but is in reality Brain O'Neill. Jay Hoggard opens with a soulful gospel tune that I just can't seem to get out of my head, "Worship God in Spirit, Truth and Love." What a beauty!
Jerry Tachoir is back with his new CD Stories, Dan Dean (g) and Tom Collier (v) play a Rolling Stones tune "What A Shame," Rusty Burge with a Monk tune, Hendrik Meurkens with Jobim and lots more.

Adding on the last lesson- motivic ideas for breaking up a scale and variations.

Hey all,
I just wanted to pass on an iphone app I have been using lately. It is called Drumgenius and was put together by a Bassist as a practice tool. It is a big collection of different feels laid out in 2-8 bar phrases. The killing aspect to this app is that the grooves are all taken from great recordings, so for example if you look up 2 feel you might find : 2 feel like Jack Dejohnette on Take the Coltrane from the Album Triplicate (DHolland ECM) 225 BPM. Or 2 feel ala Eric Harland.
