Been working on this tune again over the past couple of weeks,the goal being to improve my playing overall on chords and solo. This was the one I chose after a lot of takes. I think its important to keep going back over tunes and hear if…
So I am in Texas visiting my folks, which means I don't have a vibe with me. I used to get really bummed about this. Having to spend a week or so away from my instrument. I have since come to look at it as a forced "put yourself in a box"…
When I think Rhythm Changes, I instantly think Parker. Here are some videos of Bird over the form. Note his contrasts. He does an amazing job of switching from harmonic generalization (Bb triad or blues material) to harmonic specificity (…
This is in my apartment in Columbia, South Carolina. I practice every day looking out onto the beautiful horse shoe, which is the historic part of the USC campus.
Hi All- Having some bad troubles with the motor on my M46, hoping someone could point me in a useful direction.
I have an m46 with a motor, and it's been playing up terribly as of late. Firstly, somehow (in transit, I don't know when)…
I'm burnt out on If I Were a Bell!
Closure is important, So here's a final etude I'll leave you with. I improvised it on the MalletKat. The important thing to know is this. I did this in one take (after I warmed up on the instrument). The…
Guys, here's a version of Jobim's Wave from the Berklee fundraiser concert that we did on 3/30/12. It features Matt Marvuglio on flute along with Nori Shiota on bass and Jazz Robertson on drums. Nori and Jazz are students at the school. I…
See what's going on inside a resonator.
I stumbled on this video. It demonstrates standing waves inside a tube closed at one end, just like vibraphone resonators.
There is a speaker on one end, connected to a tone generator (single…

Hi everyone,
I'm sharing this song that I wrote two year ago.
It is just a duet with English singer Sam Dale (actually, he wrote the lyrics.)
I really love his voice and his spirit !
We recorded at home (in my bedroom…)
I hope you will…
Hi all,
I have been working on a 4 mallet marimba solo called Mbira song. I have been enjoying learning this wonderful piece. However, i was wondering if anyone here has either played the piece or has any tips on it. Its a great marimba…
Wow. I just got the new malletKat and have been playing it. I think Mario did it with this one. He's changed the feel of the instrument and put in Kurtzweil sounds. It's pretty amazing.
I was always a MalletKat fan, but thought of it as…
Hi, I'm considering getting my first set of vibes. A guitarist for past 10 years, I've always loved the sound of the vibes. Ive found a 20 yr old set of mussier 75 pro century vibes for sale. They are cited as being in excellent condition…
Very little use, custom foamed carrying cases (3), like new condition. I'm retired and too old to carry this heavy baby to my gigs. Looking for an M55G same condition or sale for $4,500 (with cases) or $4,000 without cases. Buyer pays…
I've got 2 high quality mics for sale. These AKG c-414s are excellent for studio recording or amplification on a gig. They are large diaphragm condenser mics that recording engineers have used and trusted for years.
This mic has 4 settings…
