Drum Percussion

Hey guys,

Here are some audio clips from a concert that took place at The University of New Hampshire in Durham, NH on February 2nd, 2009. The players are Dave Liebman – soprano & tenor, Matt Wilson – drums, David Clark – bass and me on vibes, piano and marimba.

It seems to be a pretty quiet morning here at the Vibes Workshop so I figured I'd post another video. This is from the same concert as the Deep Hearts video I uploaded a few days ago.

This one is called Ups and Downs and it is one of my originals.

*I just noticed that you could submit performances for members, so I wanted to put this out there again.*

This is a video I recently made of my band, Nós Novo, playing one of my favorite Bjork tunes. Though the band was founded with a view to playing and playing with Celtic musics from our perspective as jazz musicians, we also do the occasional song that I just really enjoy playing and feel suits the group... to my ears there's a lot of connection to Irish music in this performance, but if it doesn't strike you that way, I hope you enjoy it for what it is. Our members be:

This is from a recent concert my group and I played at Berklee. This is Ed's tune, Deep Hearts, which is one of my favorite of Ed's tunes.

Enjoy.

Hello everyone,

Here are a few lessons on Triad Pairs. Pretty cool stuff.

August 1st vibes workshop will be 1 year old. It's been a very hard and fun year. I've mad so many friends from all over the world and we have this instrument in common. That's totally cool.

The site is slowly growing and things are starting to happen. I think next year will be an even better year. It's great that many of you are willing to support the site as you do. I think we're going to build something great.

Hey everyone... it's been a while since I've been on the site. Trying to get back into the swing of things here and to catch up on all the stuff of missed.

This isn't a vibes video, but it is a great video of a bunch of extremely talented guys out of Basil, Switzerland. These are GREAT drummers... check them out!
