Working on the promotion of these brand new publications of 'Mallet Ensemlbe' music.
I arranged/composed these 6 pieces through a commission from 'Zeltsman Marimba Festival' (ZMF) in 2013. They are written for two shared marimbas and a vibraphone (5 performers).
They got published by MRL MUSIC and they are available at

Hey Guys,
I'm thinking of selling my pair of AMT vibe mics. These are the best small footprint mics for the vibes, without question. I had them for a few years, but simply don't use them much. Drop me a note if you're interested.

Playing the classic Disney song with a nod to the great pianist Art Tatum.

Revisiting "Country", a beautiful composition written by Keith Jarrett. It's an AABB form composition. This clip features three separate renditions of the melody chorus.

I remember seeing Keith play this solo piano on SNL in the 70s. It was amazing seeing him play solo piano on prime time commercial television. Country is also one of the tracks on Keith's great recording "My Song" featuring Keith and his European quartet (Jan Garbarek, Palle Danielson and Jon Christenson). It's one of my favorite recordings.

original composition from my book, Vibraphone Virtuosity, series Vol. 1

Hi All,
The March edition of Good Vibes is this Sunday, March 6 at the usual time, 8-10 pm eastern.

Playing Hoagy Carmichael's classic composition "Skylark" this morning before an enjoyable day of teaching at Berklee. So many great songs written by Hoagy Carmichael and this is one of them.

Volumes 1 and 2 of the four volume series The Complete Guide To Improvisation are now available via my website, Amazon and the Berklee College of Music bookstore.

For information regarding private lessons either in Boston at Berklee or via Skype or Face Time, please visit www:edsaindon.com

I'm posting this final "round up" of Giant Steps to stress the importance of sculpting each phrase, no matter what the tempo. Ben pointed out the advantage of not playing the tune too fast, so here's a medium tempo where I did my best to shape each phrase, using dynamics, dampening and legato playing.
