Vibraphone

Hi All,

Playing the classic song "Darn That Dream" with inspiration from the great pianists like Art Tatum, Errol Garner, Dave McKenna, Teddy Wilson and Oscar Peterson. I was listening to Tatum (Pablo recordings) this week during the commute to Boston. I hadn't listened for awhile. Still unbelievable.

Hi everybody.

This post is addressed more to French audience.

I have the great pleasure to invite you to the Port Barcares Jazz Festival where my trio Babu Combo will play The 2nd of July, 17:OO AM to 18:45 AM.

The night will end with Manu Dibango and his whole band.

Free entrance.

If you are around Port Barcares, come with us to have fun !

I have been studying a lot of Chick Transcriptions lately and found some techniques that are imitable on Vibraphone.

Hi Guys this month i'm going to do the second part about So what voicings.
I'll apply the voicings to harmonize a melody (Bags Groove), and for comping purpouse using this particular structure (II-V-I)

As usual feel free to contact me through my website: www.giovanniperin.com

Had fun working on this one. Some great tunes written by Paul McCartney. Also some great tunes written by Lennon and Harrison that would be great on solo vibes. Use to play this on solo vibe hotel gigs way back.

Happy to share a new video from a concert earlier this year playing duo with LA based pianist, Josh Nelson.

Trio exceptional, quality of recording, belissima musica (IMHO) Enjoy !
