Here's my (relatively mediocre) solo version of The Gypsy! Not sure why my brain went to mush in a few spots, but overall I think it went okay.
Here's another etude that I wrote, in F major this time. This has a much larger focus on dampening, with a repeated phrase throughout that the etude is built around. The motive is moved through different keys and modes before returning and ending on F major. Pedaling and dampening marks are in the .pdf attached.
After a lifetime of work trying to become a great improviser, I've come to understand that music can be broken down into basic challenges that venture off into more complex ones as you continue to search for the ultimate YOU in your music.
Hey guys, this is my first time playing with a vocalist on vibes, and I think I'm going to be doing a lot more of it because this was really fun. This is Matt Dennis' "Angel Eyes."
A little beauty...
Hola a todos!
Comparto acá mi humilde versión del estudio n°11 de "Dampening and Pedaling".
Traté de utilizar varias técnicas de dampenig para desarrollar la interpretación del estudio y de paso practicar y profundizar un poco más en el manejo de las mismas. Usé Pivot dampening, slide dampenig, hand dampening y, además, alternatig dampening y same mallet dampening.
Gracias por el espacio , espero que les guste!

I just modified this post to point to Marianne's video from the grounds of the Pennypack Trust. Music is now also higher fidelity than the prior link. :)

I mentioned this in the coffeehouse a few weeks back. It is out now, although there is an issue with iTunes pricing we are working to correct, so we aren't advertising it widely yet. It is available on Amazon at the correct price and is on or will be on most streaming platforms.
Enjoy!
