Hey guys, ran across this site recently. Has some good improv related topics and put together pretty nicely with related videoclips. Here's the link: http://jazzadvice.com/7-harmonic-breakthroughs-that-completely-changed-…

Hello everyone, if anyone is interested in writing an article for the Percussive Arts Society magazine Percussive Notes, please contact me for details.

Hi everyone. Although I´m a proud member for more than two years, this is my first video. I hope you enjoyed...and criticize!
Thank you!
Hello again!
Hello,
This is me performing in a sentimental mood from a live session. The sound and the video quality are not very good but I hope you enjoy it.
Thanks

Here one of the tunes we played during our first gig last Thursday, "If I had You". We played many others but only this one was recorded entirely. Simple, no complicated harmony, not our best (some mistakes - ahem), but I'll remember this date forever as the first time I played 4 mallets in front of an audience, and without guitar or piano help ..., and as I owe this to VW, I think VW has to be the first to have access to the video !
Stephane Beuvelet - drums
Xavier Cortazar - Bass
Hey guys, here's one we just taped last week at Berklee. It's an old classic that works great with the four to the bar feel. I recorded this song on my recording Swing On The Sunny Side with the great Herb Pomeroy. Herb's solo on that track is simply beautiful. This clip is also my nod to the great pianist Dave McKenna. If you haven't checked out Dave, I suggest you should. He has a lot of solo recordings out on the Concord Jazz label as well as some nice clips up on YouTube. Happy Holidays everyone! Ed
Here is an alternate version of a solo marimba interpretation of my composition Life's Blessing. The lead sheet can be viewed and downloaded in PDF format from my website. Here's the link: http://www.edsaindon.com/documents/Lifes_Blessing.pdf
This clip was videotaped in the Percussion Department at Berklee. Mallets are my signature model from Vic Firth and the marimba is a Marimba One owned by marimbist Eriko Daimo.
Hey guys, here's a solo marimba clip of me playing my composition Life's Blessing. Tony and I had recorded some videoclips of that tune in the past as a project. The lead sheet can be viewed and downloaded in PDF format from my website. Here's the link: http://www.edsaindon.com/documents/Lifes_Blessing.pdf
I just listened to Tony's excellent post on bringing the four mallets into play when soloing. This clip sort of applies to that topic.
