I'm going to start posting solo vibraphone videos much more now that the semester is over and I have mics and an audio interface. "This is I Remember Clifford." On my mind are modulation, dynamics, dampening, and maintaining a big picture…
Of course what's happening now with the virus is terrible, however I am having so much fun at home working and practicing. Feels weird to say, as I know many people are suffering. I think my rough times are coming but they are not here yet…
Hey VW!
Tony suggested a few months ago for me to create a video with tips about mics and recording. I decided to do this in a popular Youtube-type tutorial format, also designed to share here. Hope it is helpful and informative!
Cheers,…
I've been learning to code in Python recently, using a textbook. A lot of the education for beginners is oriented towards data analysis or doing a lot of math quickly, but Python is pretty great for musicians too. Plenty of programmers…
David wrote this piece back in 2017 and we recorded this in the late october of 2018. Since then it was resting on my harddrive waiting to be edit. Now its finally done.

Video footage of Cal is pretty rare, and I found this the other day on YouTube. This is the longer clip with three tunes on it - Cubana Chant, Poinciana, and Doxy.
The instrument is a Deagan 1000, and it's nice to see Hefner keepin' it…
You hear them? You like them? I think they are cool.
I got the tip from my student Oliver who is a piano player and moves voicings from the piano to the vibes. Oliver rocks!
Some Sunday night musical reflection on “America” with some reharmonization, modulation and constant structure chords. If anyone would like the lead sheet just let me know.
Tony is challenging me to do a 3 tune mini concert every week for the next few weeks. This week I am working on Upper Manhattan Medical Group, Alice in Wonderland, and All of You. I have been thinking about how to widen my range when…
Preparing for my masterclass at Boston Conservatory at Berklee called ‘e-Vibes & Vibes’, showing how I combine a Musser vibraphone with the Pearl malletstation.

Here are some exercises and info I gave a student on Solar.
WANDERING SCALES - I think it's a good exercise to be able to move from scale to scale from wherever you are. Here's one chorus of that.
SOLO TO TRANSCRIBE - Transcribe it!…
"Bridge Over Troubled Water" - Vibes and Strings. Recorded the string track and then played vibes over that. The strings switched from left to right half way past the clip which was not intentional. I wish I had real live strings but I can…
