Nice surprise today having Steve Nelson come to the mallet class which Gustavo and I ran. The class was part of the Berklee Percussion Weekend. Steve played two beautiful solo pieces. Sweet and Lovely and Ellington's Sophisticated Lady. Shared some great stories about Milt and Bobby.
If you are into the Exotica genre, I think you will dig this group. Found them on Amazon Music where they have one of their albums available for free streaming.
MUSICIANS:
Brian O’Neill (Artistic Director) vibraphone, percussion, artistic director
Geni Skendo: bass flute, C flute
Jeremy Smith: hand percussion
Brad Barrett: bass
Tev Stevig: oud, tanbur, resonator guitar
Enjoy,

Hi Everyone,
Boy, did May ever get away from me. Two events kept me crazy busy, the first the graduation of my son Nick from Temple University's graduate program in music in mid-May. The second, hosting the Jost Project at our house as a CD preview party later in the month. It was a great time. Everyone enjoyed the music, the company, the food, the fine weather. Like Christmas in the summer. Time now to get back to work.

There's your code for free shipping for Anthony Smith's book "Masters of the Vibes".
I'm not sure the details for Europe. I'm looking into it.
Here's a track from a recent recording session I did at my university. I have been working on my solo playing and thought it would be worthwhile to try to record a bunch of tunes. Not everything turned out as well as I would have liked, but I did learn a lot about what to work on. This was my favourite. It's a tune in 3/4 by a friend of mine. I'll post the lead sheet if anyone's interested.

Beautiful piece of music that I sketched out for vibes and a little personal interpretation.
