Hi there,

Vibes Congress 2015 Recap

Getting a little practice time in today at home while on a semester break from Berklee. Here are a few choruses of I'm Old Fashioned by Jerome Kern and Johnny Mercer. I learned this tune playing with trumpeter Herb Pomeroy and clarinetist/saxist Dick Johnson. I learned so much from playing with them. Sadly, they have left us but are still very much missed and remembered by many musicians especially in the Boston area.

Dedicated to the great Charlie Haden whom we lost in 2014. A very special musician and person.

A good way to start a new year :o))
Happy new year for all !!!!

Solo marimba audioclip of George Gershwin's classic composition "Summertime" from a video shoot taped by the Vic Firth production team which took place at Berklee College of Music in Boston. Other songs recorded at the session were (on vibes) Autumn Leaves, Alone Together, Wave, Green Dolphin Street, (on marimba) Summertime, Topsy and (vibes/marimba) Take the A Train. Videoclips of these tracks will be released via the Vic Firth YouTube channel over the next few months.
