Vibraphone

Harmonized

"What Kind Of Fool Am I" by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley. Working on solo playing with reharm and voicings. Was playing through the Bill Evans version and got some nice ideas and wanted to try it out on the vibes.

Hi guys, today I'd like to show you one significant lick of Dave Samuels. It's taken from his song "Turnabout" (Here and now, Caribbean jazz project). Check out this record because it's simply gorgeous!
We will analyse in particular how he uses upper structures and double stops in octaves.

Hi vibes lover, today I'd like to challenge you and your friend with this easy progression!
the difficult part of the exercise is that you have to do it in all the keys saying out loud the name of the chord you are playing and then make a video and post it here!

good luck
Giovanni

"The Nearness Of You" - Solo vibraphone on this classic with a focus on various dampening techniques including slide, hand and pivot dampening.

Comments welcome!

Way Maker - this song was requested by a friend who asked me to record it. I added my own spin on it with some reharmonization. The lead sheet with reharm can be viewed and downloaded via the link in the video description.
