Here's some more stuff I've been working on with Tony.

Tony has me working out of the bops duet book by Bugs Bower. This is etude #12. The rules here have been that I can't look at the bars and to practice sight reading (which I'm still slow at but making progress from this exercise). Here is my entry after going over this one every day for a few weeks. I will say not looking at the bars is just a good exercise in general for spacial awareness on the instrument.

Hey everyone,

Here's a quick lesson on the three types of glissandos I find myself using, and how to practice them. I also discuss how to practice flams on vibes to help with glissandos.

See Video

Here is my run through on Chi Chi. I could probably keep practicing this for the rest of my life, but thought I'd give a progress report and keep moving.

Other things I'm working on with Tony:

This is a good one!!

Thanks to David Patrois. One of his students told me he does this.

I have played 12 tone rows before but never like this. Making one up, and playing in all the keys.

Very cool lifetime exercise!

here is my 12 tone row:
F C G# B G F# D Bb C# E Eb A

i just made it in some quasi random way in Sibelius.

Love this great tune by Joe Henderson, so this is my first time I think posting a video. All comments welcome

Bar Posts and Damper pad.

Watch Video for demonstration.

Just a quick demonstration on the conflicts created by A440 vs. A442 tuning when mixed together.

Hola a todos, comparto esta grabación de esta pieza original para Vibrafono y ensamble de percusión compuesta por Lucas Guinot (Argentina) e interpretada en este caso por mí en el Vibráfono junto al Ensamble de Percusión del Conservatorio de Música de Tres Arroyos (Argentina) durante mi concierto de graduación a fines del 2016.
La obra tiene aire a Chacarera (especie folclorica de Argentina).

PD.Recomiendo ampliamente que investiguen el trabajo de Lucas Guinot, hay composiciones para todo tipo de formaciones en intrumentos.
