Here's a video of what we brought in after the first wave of vibe moving.
This is for the Delaware workshop 2010.

I had a truly great time at the Ireland workshop - Tony is a master vibraphonist and definitely a missionary preaching the gospel of jazz! I certainly learned a lot from him as well as the other players at the workshop. No man is an island and it is vital to be able to connect with other players in order to grow and mature as a musician. It was quite a blast meeting other mallet players from all across Europe!

Here's the second piece I recorded today.

This piece seems really hard for me on this vibraphone. I think I'm going to try to record this at my school whenever I get a chance to go there within the next month.

As requested a video of my old jenco vibraphone. I really like the sound on this old beast. It is extremely challenging to play a piece like this on it however because the bars are so tiny.

7:30 Limerick Time, 8:30 in France, 2:30 in Philly and 11:30 on the west coast!

Come check out the vibe hang Wednesday night. It will be the culmination of the 4 day workshop in Limerick. So hopefully all the cats will stick around and play. We'll have a rhythm section there as well as (I hope) a special guest. A local vibe player who plays great. He's also lending us his vibes for the week!

Hello Everyone,

This is a six mallet marimba solo. This video is from a tour about 2.5 months ago. This show was at 11am, and I did not feel the greatest, staying up all night before, typical tour! We were abit late getting to the place so we only had 25minutes to unpack. No time for warmup of any sort.

I find tours very interesting. You have to play your best no matter how you feel warm or cold. I think it's a very good experience touring it really forces you to be on your A game.

Hi everyone.

This is a minor blues tune I wrote called: "It's Alright, it's Coo"

I would love to put a recording of someone playing it either solo or with a group on my new website which will be running in a couple weeks.

Please try it out!

Intros are cool too! And you don't necessarly have to play the written coda, up to you.

Joe

Hey Tony,

Glad I barely got this in on time! Hope you enjoyed your day and that you'll like this version of Black Orpheus!

All the best,
James
