Play Along CD – in 4/4. Play Along CD – in 7/4. Lesson 99: 4 Note Cell. In this lesson we’ll look at 5 different harmonic contexts for a common 4 note cell. This 4 note cell is often thought of as one of the simplest Major 7 #11 voicings (1,Maj 3, #11, Maj 7). In C this is C, E, F#, B or one simple voicing for C Major 7 #11. Each cell can be used for improvising as well constructing simple 4 note voicings (which are in several cases rootless). These are the 5 contexts we will look at:. Protected: Triad a...

Play Along CD – in 4/4. Play Along CD – in 7/4. New Drones – Arco Bass. I recently recorded new Drones with my good friend Jeff Harshbarger. Jeff spent an afternoon over at my home studio and recorded all 12 drones with his beautiful acoustic bass and bow. Over the years, I have enjoyed using the Indian classical tambura or tampura drones and thought it would be nice to have some new Drones to practice with using a Bowed Acoustic Bass (arco). To open the file on PC or RAR Extractor for Mac. I am a bignne...

Play Along CD – in 4/4. Play Along CD – in 7/4. Lesson 41: Shell Tension. Over the years I’ve used a simple tool that can really aid a single note player in creating a harmonic context without a piano or chordal instrumen which is often not available. Simply by arpeggiating the shell voicing (root, 3rd and 7th of a chord) first and than playing a tension, group of tensions or entire melodic phrase. Shell Voicing with 13 and b13 PDF.

Dispatches From Middle Age: When You Can No Longer Remember Shit ...
http://dispatchesfma.blogspot.com/2015/04/when-you-can-no-longer-remember-shit.html
Dispatches From Middle Age. Saturday, April 4, 2015. When You Can No Longer Remember Shit . As I see it you either turn 60 or you write a truthful memoir, but you can't do both. Because after 60 (or after chemo and radiation or post-partum or terror or other life-changing extended sleep-depriving events) you simply don't care that much for accuracy. You can't, it's an unattainable goal like having the body you sported at 20. Who cares if the year and the employer are wrong? Spring in New Haven. A Better ...

Dispatches From Middle Age: January 2014
http://dispatchesfma.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Dispatches From Middle Age. Monday, January 27, 2014. As you may have surmised, the interlude between posts has almost everything to do with the fact that I am not writhing in the crucible of Mathematics these days. By comparison, the things I consider on a daily basis - death and taxes - haven't driven me mad enough to post. Or more accurately, they are both too personal to post about. Yet. Well, suh, as my grandmother used to say. Comme Ci Comme Ça. Links to this post. Math is hard and life is short.

Dispatches From Middle Age. Saturday, July 19, 2014. A Cure for Everything But Death. Although I will never write a memoir - buried bodies will remain buried bodies - I do tend to think of my life in narrative. What is the story? That I'm not at all morose, just realistic. Comme Ci Comme Ça. Links to this post. I Hate Summer, 2014 edition. You into my soil would you say that you had volunteered. I mean, if you were a seed.) Some of my migrants are undoubtedly weeds and drive the people who walk aroun...

Ivesy Divey: October 2009
http://ivesydivey.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
The thoughts of young saxophonist John Paton of Vancouver, Canada. Friday, October 2, 2009. I'm spending the very first two weeks of October in Vancouver. Coming back to Vancouver from Montreal always feels like a breth of fresh air, even if sometimes it feels like "where is everybody? All the musicians I came up listening to are here, and I always try to see as many of them as I can. Posted by John Paton. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Sam Newsome's Blogspot: Soprano Sax Talk.
