Marimba

Some of you, friends, know I am a big Bobby Hutcherson fan...
so I'm excited about this upcoming show in
San Diego, on March 19th at 98 Bottles, with
Ian Harland (also vibes)
Joshua White (piano)
Doug Walker (bass)
Gerard Nolan (sax)
Duncan Moore (drums)

"A Tribute to Bobby Hutcherson"

Bobby wrote and recorded so
many great tunes, both during his fruitful Blue Note
days and also later, when he was out on the West Coast.
we are going to play as many of them
as we can squeeze into one evening!
Here are some of them:

Head Start
Cirrus
Black Circle
Montara

Hi there,

Solo marimba audioclip of George Gershwin's classic composition "Summertime" from a video shoot taped by the Vic Firth production team which took place at Berklee College of Music in Boston. Other songs recorded at the session were (on vibes) Autumn Leaves, Alone Together, Wave, Green Dolphin Street, (on marimba) Summertime, Topsy and (vibes/marimba) Take the A Train. Videoclips of these tracks will be released via the Vic Firth YouTube channel over the next few months.

Hi everybody! Would love to hear your thoughts of my recording thanks!

I am selling 2 sets (8 mallets) of the gary burton signature mallets by vic firth. They are lightly used. I purchased them a few years ago but I've since switched to the Balter Micelli mallet.

The price is $40 for both sets, plus shipping ($10 within the U.S. $20 outside the U.S.) If interested contact me via email at tedwolff46@gmail.com

See attachments for photos and an mp3 clip of what they sound like.

Here's a nice performance of a pop song from Genesis!!
Hoper u enjoy

Hey guys,

Great workshop last Wednesday. The assignment is posted to the blackboard in the percussion room, but I'll post it here also. You can post your finished assignments here as well:

Compose a short etude on marimba or vibes. Use a recurring vamp theme. Etude must contain at least two different tonal centers. Provide a mp3 and written music with your post. Good luck!
