what we are doing here

nico 15 October 2011

I really don't post too much in this blog, so here is a shorty on what we're doing at this moment at vanderPlas Baileo.

We started to have montly clinics at our facility in Sassenheim, generally every first Saturday of the month. This basically is a smaller version of the one and only annual vibesworkshop.com workshop week in Februari. Our first one was held October 1st, and about 12 percussionists showed up. Lots of fun.

As you may have noticed, we have come up with the DIYframe, a highly affordable solution for those who need a second frame for their bars and resonators.

Ronnie Scott

I've just finished reading British Jazzer Ronnie Scott's book, Lets Join Hands And Contact The Living, its a great read, all about his life and his famous Jazz Club and some of the great musicians who played there. Well worth reading. I have also added a link of him playing with The Victor Feldman Trio, two amazing musicians, Scott was an immensely talented player and played with some of the greatest jazz musicians on the planet, so enjoy.

Last May, I graduated from the College of Saint Rose in Albany, NY with a B.S. in Music Education. Saint Rose has a very general percussion program, but jazz has always been my favorite so I went out of my way to work on that while getting my degree (not always an easy task when you're supposed to be focusing on classical percussion!). That's why I went to the Delaware workshop this summer too.
