Guys, here's another solo vibe clip that I added to my YT solo vibraphone channel. I'm hoping to add a few more here and there when time permits. Ed
Hey,
some of you may not know that I composed MUSIC for VIBRAPHONE & ORCHESTRA (beside my jazz works) as well as CHAMBER MUSIC with VIBRAPHONE...
For more infos please have a look at MY WEBSITE !!! (Please be a little patient while the site first time builds up - there are many audio files etc. on it...)
Thanks
#FLORIAN POSER
Our next TOTM. Cool changes on this tune!
Ok... so the saga continues. For the last week or so, I have been using my modified damper bar that I rebuilt for my M48 on my newly aquired 1949 vintage M75 just because I prefer the way it plays and sounds to the standard Musser damper bar.
Folks the spiritual leader of this site is now on Wikipedia. Many of you know him better than I do so please feel free to either suggest edits or just make them....
Hi Everybody,
I'm doing a very special vibraphone workshop as part of a marimba duo workshop in a beautiful castle in Poland from the 22nd till the 29th of April. We still have some spaces available. It'll be intense and intimate.
Everybody lives, eats and studies in the castle. I'm really looking forward to it. If you're interested, contact: marimbaduo@gmail.com

As you are going along your established route in life playing vibes, marimba or whatever, be aware that you can obtain some serious injuries that you may or may not have heard of. Below is a picture of me just after I got out of the hospital this past Monday. The injury I have is a "Trigger Finger". These are very painful and most of the time it requires surgery for complete relief. I have now had five of these and all have occurred (excepting the very first one) in a very short period of time.
Hello guys, here's a short solo vibraphone clip that was just uploaded to my YouTube Solo Vibes channel. This very brief solo clip shows me working on playing lines along with some left hand comping on Coltrane's Giant Steps. There's also a new clip of Van Heusen's Like Someone In Love. I'll be uploading more solo vibe clips soon. To be notified when new clips are added, you can subscribe to my Solo Vibes channel. Best, Ed
