Ok, something is up with video and we're trying to figure what is going on, so we could use your help.
First we've set the page not to autoload (probably should switch it back). And it's supposed to autoplay, but that seems not to be…
It's interesting to note how the physical attributes of players influence how they approach the instrument.
I'm 5'7" when I get up in the morning and probably 5'6" by the time I get home from work to practice. I'm also overweight which…
i'm playing with a pianist in a few weeks. i've heard some vibes and piano duo recordings, but i'm wondering what everyone else has to say. also if there's any tips on playing with a pianist that anyone has that'd be greeat too.
thanks!
From those of you who were on thevibe.net a few years ago, you might remember Vid Jamnik, this kid hardly 13 years old from Slovenia playing vibes so well, and his father by his side...
Well, "little Vid" is now 16. And he just joined the…
this is my version of tonys cherokee etude. i spent a lot of time on this but unfortunatley i couldn´t do one take (and marie did forbid me to cheat and to cut 2 or 3 versions together!) without mistakes. this is the best one take i could…
I won't be writing stuff out. We're going to use our ears. I know already that that's very difficult with 15 vibe players in the room, but the alternative of writing stuff out just doesn't work for me.
You might want to get into the swing…
I saw a recent subscriber arriving among us... Jean Gigot is from Belgium and speaks French. I have know idea where he comes from and so naturally I wonder... well...
Who is Jean Gigot? Huh?
One of the things that keeps blowing me away is to see Gary Burton perform in duo constellations with piano players! The DvD "Live in Munich" with Gary Burton and Chick Corea is along with the Joe Locke CD "Live in Seattle" one of the…
I met Gloria through Randy Sutin. Gloria might be the only radio DJ in the world with an all vibes show!!!
Anyway Gloria, a "Who Is" is a post where you can tell us about yourself. So I hope you don't mind Gloria but tell us about…
I have just returned from Salzau, where I have seen our dear member joe Locke for the fourth time in a row today. I've seen him with Geoffrey Keezer, Terreon Gully and Mike Pope and sharing a stage with Bobby Hutcherson. A year later he…
Hello VW,
I've posted a link on my facebook page and Marie-Noelle asked me to share it with you,
so here is a video on my arrgt on the Adagietto from the 5th Symphony of G.Mahler.
hope you enjoy it, and feel free to comment
best regards…
I found this video on Facebook. I dug Patrice's playing and his 4 mallet playing. Sometimes I do a test when I'm listening to guys, I turn the sound off and just watch them. Patrice has a nice feel IMHO. And I thought he had a nice flow in…
This old thing was recorded around 1973 using a low end Sony reel to reel and 2 very inexpensive mics, so I apologize for the audio quality. Still, the sound is clear enough to hear the 2 instruments pretty well. I remember having to…
Hey everyone,
I haven't posted in a while but I'm really going to try and start posting more. This is Joe's solo on Verrazano Moon from his gig at Dizzy's on Jan. 30th, 2010. This was definitely a big challenge for me but I had such a…
Hello Everyone,
This is a six mallet marimba solo. This video is from a tour about 2.5 months ago. This show was at 11am, and I did not feel the greatest, staying up all night before, typical tour! We were abit late getting to the place…
