This is a short etude I recently wrote aimed at improving my single hand dampening. Listen out for the continuous C5 under the moving harmonies..

Thought you guys might want to see this. pretty cool stuff.

Back home after a 3-hour trio gig (vibes, bass, drums). Man, I am exhausted!

Another tune of the same great concert that somebody posted a few days ago.
On this one each soloist takes a solo. Here's Gary's turn. Incredible !!
And here the first part of the tune with Thomas Clausen's (the pianist) solo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8r3DHBfJzAI&feature=related
Enjoy !

Let's not forget Stephen Hambright and Marie (our queen). Without them we really would NOT have a vibe site like this!

Without Stephen Hambright it would have crashed and I would have left it dead! I don't know enough. Actually I know enough to be dangerous!

Without John Daly, Tjaco and Harvey Price, we would not have workshops.

Without Mike Pinto we'd have no store.

Without some of the pros who put up lessons on a regular basis you'd be only listening to my crap all year long!!

Hey guys.

i recently found out that some of the john zorn masada tunes work great for solo vibes. here´s a little arrangement i made the last days for this nice tune.

I just figure since its Thanksgiving, I would show my thanks.

Tony, I owe you everything. If it wasn't for this site I wouldn't be playing. This site is the reason I'm even at Berklee. Because of you I was able to meet my teachers and people that have helped me along the way.

This is a great place to get information and see how people practice and what things are necessary to be a player. There is SO much information here.

Also this is a great way to find a vibraphone in different countries! Without this it would be so hard to find vibes in other places.

One year ago I was having in my mind to create a combo where the vibes would take an important place, with my dream of maybe in the future be able to play with 4 mallets…..
In January I subscribed to the site (took me one month and a half to understand how to use it ! :-)), and I started to work as much as possible during every minute of my spare time.
