Hi All,
Here is the article I wrote for my monthly column, On The Road, in the New Jersey Jazz Society magazine. It appears in the just-released July/August issue. This magazine is sent to members only and is not available online. Anyone who would like the full 54-page mag, please email me and I will send the whole pdf.

Hey friends,

I recorded this rehearsal of my little solo suite for Vibraphone and iPhone called "Nordlig Vinter" recently. Thought some of you might be interested! There's three short pieces in the one video: Ice Drum, Clusters and Snow Bells.

If you like the music there's more information on my site: http://charlesmartin.com.au/nordligvinter

Hey all,

Soon me and the family are going on our 2 week holiday. And this year I just don't want to take a break in playing. Only thing is, I can't take the vibes.

Now I noticed there are these cheap 1-1.5 octave glockenspiels you can get.

-Is it a good idea to take this with me, and work a bit with it on holiday ?
- do some of you now fun stuff, (tunes, excercises,....) that I can do then.
- Or maybe sheet music which I need to rewrite for vibes ? (for my level of playing off course, but a lot of you know what I'm capable or not, so I can ask here.)
other stuff....

thanks,

this tune is written by our singer taken from a gig we did some time ago...

I wrote the publisher and asked for a discount for the Emil Richards biography. I think we'll get 40% off.

It is a VERY VERY interesting book for a mallet player.

Let me know if you use this and buy the book. Just curious as to how many people do this.

PERC40JUNA is the discount for the emil richards book

hey,

another friday, another version of that song. don´t think we just play only this tune but i love to compare different versions and different feelings of the same song. unfortunatley the mobile tel. of the guitar player ringed during the end theme so i faded out before. this time the sound is not from the cam but from my recording gear...

I'm going to try to Livestream my gig this Sunday afternoon. We're playing as a trio (vibes, bass, drums) outdoors at a farmers market. I'm told they have very good 4G signal, so what the heck :-).

The stream will be at http://new.livestream.com/accounts/1758489/events/2161697, starting at 1:30PM EDT on Sunday, 9-Jun-2013. There won't be anyone there who can monitor the feed, so if you stop by leave a comment here or there so I know!

This will be an interesting experiment!
