Look what Nadja just posted on Youtube today: another beautiful version of Joe's tune "Sword of Whispers", performed on July 13th at the Royal Academy of Music in London... I love this version as it's played in duet by two friends, on two beautiful instruments. Enjoy! :o)
A solo version of my tune Waltz for Tomorrow.

I first heard this piece, titled Adagio for Strings in the early 1970s. I was so moved by the music that I decided to try to score it out for 2 marimbas and try to play it. My duet partner was Stu Balcomb, who older Berklee students may remember.
We worked it up and got a chance to perform it in concert around 1975. It was in a big hall for a large audience. The marimbas were an excellent choice to capture the beauty and simplicity of the music and our performance was very well received. I will always remember that night as one of the highlights of my musical journey.
Hey guys, video footage from the Berklee Percussion Festival concert on 6/18/13 has been uploaded to YouTube. The concert featured original compositions from members of the band. Personnel: Matt Marvuglio - flute, Marco Pignataro - tenor, soprano sax, David Clark - upright bass, Ron Savage - drums and Ed Saindon - vibes. Set list: Why Cry (Marvuglio), Bologna D'inverno (Pignataro), The Healing (Saindon), Strayhorn (Clark), Hope (Saindon).
This is a performance of the MOZART PIANO CONCERTO (KV415) by Andrey Doynikov & Detmold Percussion.
Listen to the fantastic accuracy in phrasing, dynamics and rhythm of the whole ensemble and the sensational virtuosity of Andrey Doynikov!
On my opinion: Simply awesome!

To make a long story short, I am couch-crashing this month and no longer have unlimited vibraphone access. I've gotten used to just walking over and playing any time, so this is quite an unwelcome change. Now I go to the nearby university to practice, so my hours are limited :(
Hi Everyone,
I hope some of you were able to tune in to the last Good Vibes on July 7th and 10th.
Time to gear up for August's broadcasts, on the 4th and 7th. Two vibes players make their debuts on Good Vibes in August, Micah Rutschman and Smith Dobson. I continue to play tracks from Behn's latest, Top Shelf, and Bobby Hutcherson's CD Linger Lane. This month I introduce Tony's new CD Can't Find My Way Home with the title track. I wish I had a weekly show just for that one!
Hi All-
I've started a new band that explores Brazilian 'choro' tunes (pre-samba music somewhat akin to ragtime/New Orleans jazz) through the lenses of creative Brooklyn musicians who play a myriad of styles. This first video is my arrangement of 'Um a Zero,' an iconic tune of Pixinguiha's, which we infuse with a bit of 'downtown' energy and exploration.
