Dick and Jimmy Odgren are two excellent jazz musicians that were part of the Berklee scene in the 1970s. Jimmy did a stint with the Gary Burton Quartet. They are both fine composers and one tune I've always enjoyed is one of Dick's tunes…
My interpretation on solo marimba of Eric Clapton's deep and powerful song Tears In Heaven. Clapton's version on his Unplugged recording is very special. Also, there is a beautiful verson by Kenny Werner on his recording Form and Fantasy.
Sy is a Philadelphia trumpet player. He also ran a music program at a local college and has player all around for years. For some strange reason he, like Marie fell in love with the vibes and he bought a set and takes lessons with me.

Without Stephen Hambright it would have crashed and I would have left it dead! I don't know enough. Actually I know…
One year ago I was having in my mind to create a combo where the vibes would take an important place, with my dream of maybe in the future be able to play with 4 mallets…..
In January I subscribed to the site (took me one month and a half…
Barryk sent me a musser on Craig's list for $1000 dollars. It was for sale in Pennsylvania, my home state. I went to scoop it up. It needed some work the ad said. Ok, I'd buy it and fix it up and then work something out with a great…
Hello everyone,
November is a very creative month for me. One of the things I did was my participation in the berklee audition world tour, in Athens and it was a great expirience. Also I had the opportunity to jam with the teachers from…
