Florian Poser & Hauke Renken - Along The Sea (by Hauke Renken)

On 14th of May 2013 my student HAUKE RENKEN (www.hauke-renken.de) and I had a fantastic recital at the theatre hall of the University of Bremen/Germany.

As you see and hear we had a great time and the audience liked it very much.

We hope you like it too...!

Bordeaux - Paris - Leipzig - European good vibes connection!

Hi all,

I just wanted to share a very nice evening I had with some vibes buddies, thanks to the internet. I was on FB, and NicoFarr was about to start a Jam Session with some friends in Leipzig. He put his Iphone cam on and we connected on Skype.

At the same time Patrice Guillon in Bordeaux 'called' me for a nice chat... about vibes, the site, his progresses on the instrument, his worries and hopes, the future workshops, etc...

Jazz Sous Les Pommiers 2013

Jazz sous les pommiers 2013

What a great weekend we had. The festival is in a French town Coutances near the coast. It’s kind of the border between Bretagne & Normandy (hope I‘m correct here).

We arranged a room with 1 of the people volunteering to give rooms for the audience. It was organized by the tourism department. So we 1st went over there. I walked in and started my explanation. “Hey, I’m Stefan Vandenbe” “OOOOOH It’s you !!!, I’m Marilyn, we mailed”. OK, so they where expecting us apparently. J

Mike Balter is the Best!

I own a set of Joe Locke crossover mallets. These are great sticks if you're looking for a big sound without the real clang of hard mallets. Unfortunately, my stick have come unwrapped twice now. And I don't mean the yarn broke, but it literally just fell off the stick. Mike Balter rewrapped them for me the first time for no cost, and now he's replacing the set of mallets as a whole for a new set at no cost. There's a reason vibe players love Mike; he's straight forward, down to earth, he gets musicians, he's reasonable, and let's face it: he makes the best sticks!
