Here is my December 2018 Mini Concert performed on my Deagan 580 (narrow bar) Vibraharp. I made two versions with different mallets. The posted version is with Tony's soft 46Rs. The attached version is with Mike Balter 23Rs.
I think the vibes sound really great in a church, and after playing a couple things at my friend's wedding this summer I decided I'd like to develop some wedding repertoire. So...for my mini concert I recorded arrangements I'm making for two standard weddings pieces. Didn't feel ready to play them in concert, but yet here they are!
Two songs, You're Nobody Till Somebody Loves You, and Moonglow. 2X each. Love to play the Omega when I get the chance.
4-octave pentatonic Balafon from Burkina Faso. Solo concert at a club in Cambridge, MA. Just jamming with energy and groove, and adhering to the 3-minute maximum youtube required in the early days. Cheers!
Hey all, had fun writing this little tune for vibes! Started on piano and played/recorded on piano.
I wanted to use a lot a pedal as I wanted to get the instrument to breath.
let me know what ya all think! by for now, jj
"Be My Love" - I had first heard this song on one of my favorite recordings from pianist Keith Jarrett titled The Melody at Night, With You. It was written in 1950 by Nicholas Brodzky and Sammy Cahn for the movie The Toast of New Orleans.
