Hi everyone,
Here is a lesson on building a voicing vocabulary. This is a exercise with offers a method for familiarizing yourself with every possible inversion and alteration of any given chord with a 4 note voicing. This first lesson just deals with close position voicings. I plan to expand to include drop 2 and other more spread out voicing in the next lesson. As always, I'd love to hear your feedback and welcome any questions or comments on the material.

There are a few interesting things about this tune. Check out the A section.
Nick Mancini at Vibe Summit XVlll. June 26th 2011. Dave Mackay on keyboard, Richard Simon on Bass and Paul Kreibich on drums. This video had to be compressed quite a bit so the quality suffered (but not the playing!).
here´s another mix i call final. i simply love this song from C. Aguilera. unfortunatley in opposite to the vibes solo of luiza i hate this one and i thought seriously to leave it out in the mix. but my band said i should keep it...what can i say 2vs1...
normally we played the song in Eb but 1 day before the recording the guitar player wanted to play it in E since it fits better for guitar and this is a guitar feature.so another proof tonys holy 12 keys rule is is cool. although the song is simple i think could never done it before the practice of all the TOTM´s. thanks tony!
ok here´s my final mix of Luiza (C. Jobim) one of the tunes i recorded with my trio latley.mixing is really difficult and it takes a lot of time but one time you have to stop and call it final.
we recorded everything in my flat.the singer was singing in my kitchen and the guitar amp was placed in my bathroom.normally i don´t like my vibes solo´s but this one i like because it´s simple and does the job fitting to the mood of the song.let me know what you think!

Hi All,
I'm posting this monthly announcement a little earlier than usual because I notice a large majority of you get to read the program announcements well after the shows have aired. Now that's not gonna help if you want to listen in.
Hi everyone,
This etude is similar to the last one; another mallet independence etude, but with a few different things. Pdf is attached. Enjoy!

This is a very interesting and demanding interlude,written by the great composer/arranger Frank Zappa.It is a incredible exercise on playing a single line melody,using uncommon intervals.
This version appeared on the "Apostrophe"album,as part of a tune called "st Alfonzo's pancake breakfast".It begins approximately at 1:09 and it was performed by the great Ruth Underwood.
It is a standard piece in the Zappa repertoire,and it was played by all the percussionists that played in the Zappa band.
