Vibraphone

Ok so something cool happened. I've been working on Paganini's Moto Perpetuo for a long time now. Not to play in public just to work on my chops. I've learned the first 3 pages. Ok....

So I would play it over and over, work on technical stuff. It's a great piece to practice because it's a chops builder. It's better then doing scales for me (not that you should stop practicing scales). But I would play it, lose my concentration, have to start over. start playing it slowly and building up speed. But I never felt great about it.

Hello! vibes community members

I am doing now writing for my paper.

I am just looking for about information of vibraphone kind of article or reference or magazine etc...

And also I appreciate that you guys gave me for great information. It was very helped to me.

Thanks

Have a good one.

Here's me playing David Friedman's Etude #11. Check it out, and please feel free to let me know what you think, thanks!

Hello to all fellow Vibeworkshoppers !

I'm currently undertaking a research masters in composition relating to the vibraphone and technology usage in composition / performance and am looking for participants. This involves answering a short questionnaire via email which will take no more than half an hour to complete. All information about the study and also the exact Questionnaire to answer is attached to this post as a pdf file for you to checkout. If you would like to participate please email me on davekemp@tpg.com.au so I can send you the Microsoft Word version for you to complete.

Hey everyone!

I've been working hard on this TOTM, and it'd be really cool now to work on it with a virtual group. Tony wants to put together a FREE Skype lesson on harmony, but we need another two or three of you to make it happen. Who wants to jam with me???

Play your vibes!

Here's a chorus, using different outlines.

A lesson on applying patterns to improvisation....specifically standards with ii-v-i changes. Refer to the pdf for a copy of the patterns.

I'm happy to announce that 'Mostly Marimba' just published two of my pieces:
'Whisper Magic' for solo vibraphone and 'Hortensia', a duo for vibes and bass.
Whisper Magic can be found on my latest recording 'Blue November'.
Hortensia will be released this Spring.
