Hi everyone,
This etude is similar to the last one; another mallet independence etude, but with a few different things. Pdf is attached. Enjoy!

This is a very interesting and demanding interlude,written by the great composer/arranger Frank Zappa.It is a incredible exercise on playing a single line melody,using uncommon intervals.
This version appeared on the "Apostrophe"album,as part of a tune called "st Alfonzo's pancake breakfast".It begins approximately at 1:09 and it was performed by the great Ruth Underwood.
It is a standard piece in the Zappa repertoire,and it was played by all the percussionists that played in the Zappa band.
Hello guys and M-N, here's a vid of me practicing the melody of a beautiful composition by Joe titled "Love Is A Planchette". Joe brought the lead sheet when he visited for a rehearsal for our upcoming CD. He'll be here in July at Berklee for a duo concert with Joe and myself playing two vibes. It should be a lot of fun.
This clip is one of three that I posted up on my YouTube page. Pretty funny about my two golden retrievers Gibson and Jackson coming in when I started to play. I'm thinking they either dig or hate it and want me to stop playing. Probably the latter.

Our next vibe hang is July 3rd. So far the line up is:
Randy Sutin, Behn Gillece, Tony Miceli and Dana Sudborough.
I think Nathaniel Vito my student might come an play a tune as well. It's going to be fun!
(Marie - did I do the UTC time right??)
Here's a clip from the Delaware Workshop 8-6-2010, featuring Tony Miceli - vibes, Todd Canedy -drums, and ? on bass.
Tony, what's the name of this tune?
Enjoy!

Hey all! i just uploaded a gig i recorded last week. It's a bit rough but i thought it was worth sharing, just for fun. As some of you know, i've been playing in the Buenos Aires (Argentina) jazz scene for a couple of years, and i expect to release my first album within this year. Recently i took a few months off from Argentina to reconnect with my homeland (Chile).
hey,
this is my first mix attempt for the recordings with my new trio. this song i wrote long time ago and recorded in many different versions but never with vocals. since i need to find a basic sound for of the recordings i would appreciate your help critique for the mix. too much reverb? how do i mix a voice best?.. any help and tips are very much welcome! thanks for listening!

Stole this off our sister site www.trumpetworkshop.com. There's a whole series over there. Is this helpful to anyone? If so I'll steal more!

Here's another one I captured on video. I only wish I captured more footage.
p.s. sorry for the movement in the videos - it was difficult to sit still and hold my camera during this ;-)
Enjoy!!
