Vibraphone

Most of us know who Angelo is. He was probably one of the oldest working vibes players in the world. There are a whole bunch of videos up here I think of him playing, it's not there on YouTube.

He was a really nice guy, totally into the Vibraphone, and that age 93 was working 3 to 5 days a week.

So it's pretty sad to report that Angelo died last night, but he did have a really long and active life!

Does anyone knows wo designed the first vibraphone with large bars and witch company first produce it?

thanks a lot
Giovanni

Hi folks,
Someone recently brought up the topic of playing in 5 and 7.
Here is a very basic lesson on playing the melody to the TOTM, Alone Together in 7.

Hello again,

i just finished another Video of M-Dur.
This is one of our "evergreens". We arranged it in the summer of 2010 i think and we play it in every concert i guess. Always the last tune before the encores. ;)
I love to play it! It's quit hard to don't miss a note in the last part, but it's a lot of fun!! ;)

I hope you like it as well.
