Hard to believe, it's five years since Good Vibes, the first and only broadcast program to feature the vibraphone, first went on the air.

Easy commute today on the way into Boston so I had some practice time before a lesson. In this clip I'm playing Horace Silver's classic ballad Peace. One of the techniques that I was thinking about was playing counterpuntal lines in different registers of the instrument along with the use of various dampening techniques.
My apologies for the bad sound. It was recorded on my Iphone.
I just wanted to post a congrats to Christos (Rafalides) for releasing his new suite for solo vibraphone, Reaching For Sindhu. I've had a chance to listen to the piece and check out the sheet music... and it's a really great piece of music! Here are the links to both the video (where Christos explains various elements and performs the piece), and also his website where the music is available, in both digital and hard copy formats. Check it!
