Hello everyone,

I wanted to let you know that I just uploaded some new videos to YouTube. The videos are from my May 7th clinic and concert with Philippe Mace at the conservatory in Paris. Here's the link to my YouTube page which lists the videos: http://www.youtube.com/edsaindon

Here’s a list of what was just uploaded:

Clinic: Solo Vibraphone Playing, The Fulcrum Grip, Sticking Concepts for the Vibraphone, Dampening Techiques on the Vibraphone

Concert: My Funny Valentine (solo vibraphone), Invitation, Hope and The Days of Wine and Roses (Philippe on marimba and me on vibes)

Argentina Diary 2 (cont.)

Days 5 and 6

From a recent online concert.

Milt and Bobby. They always pull down Milt stuff so watch it now before it's too late (dixit Tony Miceli)...
So believe him and watch! (MN)

Daily Motion Introduction:
Jazz vibes giant Milt Jackson (1923 - 1999) in one of his last performances. With him, Michael LeDonne on piano, Pierre Boussaguet on bass, and the legendary Mickey Roker on drums. At this point, Milt Jackson brings Bobby Hutcherson onstage for a duet on the venerable standard "Lady Be Good", a fitting finale for this great concert, and it's roger and out from Salzau, Germany, 1999.

This is a thrown together duo intro for my university septet. Its a bit rough around the edges, but I thought it came out nicely for our first performance together. Sorry about the music stands everywhere!

Here's a pdf with a list of Giant Steps CDs.

Man I just read Dana's blog. he's right, the opportunity is here, we should ALL be blogging. Well no should's or shouldn'ts as my wife would say. But blogging would help the learning process here.

I wish the pros would blog more often. Just talk about what's up and talk about what's going on in there heads.

I can relate to Dana listening back to himself. I always said, if I had my own music college:

Mandatory recording device for each student.
Mandatory Journal (daily)
Mandatory Recording yourself playing several things each day.

Another video from Angelo who just might be the oldest vibe player in the world? Well he's at least most likely in the top 10 i would bet!

I watched this video and saw him standing behind the instrument and playing away and thought, wow!!!

Just thought i'd post it here.
