This is a newly published etude for Vibraphone by Joke van Dal-Kleijne.
It was very challenging, so it may be a good piece for more advanced players here on the site to work on. It took me about four months to be able to get through a clean pass recording it. I'm sure some of you can put it together quicker than that, but it's a challenge, no doubt... as a good etude should be. You'll learn a lot about mallet positioning and sticking choices. I did and I've been at this 45+ years. :)
Hello everyone at vibesworkshop!
I've been working on my marimba skills. 'Carlos' is a composition of mine, which i played with many different musicians. I always wondered what it would sound like on the marimba...here it is! Greetings from Berlin, Franz
In C major
I played really simple. It should be fairly easy to transcribe.
I slow down my solo so you can see how I use 4 mallets and comp and play. I say in the video that the most important thing to me are the lines, more important than the comping. IMHO
The Dizzy Gillespie Minor Blues. It's in Fmin and instead of going to Bbmin7 on bar 5 it goes to a Db7. Very cool!
Just talking about the Dizzy Gillespie tune 'Birks Works' and showing a very simple but cool arrangement for the head.
Playing the head, soloing and then playing the chords for "So What?". There are definitely some things I'd alter but when I listened back to the recording I said "eh So What?"
