<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial><FONT size=3>Hi Jeff , The other
day I
discovered a great thing about the singing of Chet
Baker.</FONT></FONT><FONT
size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial><FONT size=3></FONT></FONT><FONT
size=3><FONT face=Arial>I was transcribing his scat-solo on "all
of
you" from the cd Chet baker Sings Again.</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3><FONT face=Arial></FONT><FONT face=Arial>He makes
his
vocal phrases and lines sound so great because he uses quartersteps
in</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3><FONT face=Arial></FONT></FONT><FONT size=3><FONT
face=Arial>his pitches here and there.</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3><FONT face=Arial></FONT></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3><FONT face=Arial> To me , this was an amazing
discovery , because it led me to two realizations:</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3><FONT face=Arial>1. Microtonality can exist in tonal
music
and can be a great tool to make old phrases come
alive.</FONT></FONT><FONT
size=3> </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>2. No way in hell am I gonna be able to play Chat
Baker
scat-solos without working up</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>a massive vib-arm technique..........(I`m gonna do
it ,
btw)</FONT></DIV>

subject.</FONT></DIV>
