Another discovery - By his name he should be Polish. A lot of body language but I like what he plays. Enjoy...

Hello fellow vibist!
Well I recorded this video as it was a live performance so..i told myself no stopping and try to
get a decent performance! I have a concert this July and I want to do a great job-hence this video as playing / posting for vwshop folks help me minimize my nerves, especially when it comes to solo playing fun, but the whole band stops and the audience stares at you. (kindly we hope!)
I hadn't played this song in quite a long time but I was working on it last week with Lucas, a wonderful vibist from Brazil studying with Gustavo and I at Berklee. We were discussing various solo vibraphone techniques and ways of approaching it as a solo vibe performance. I just ran through it this morning to see what would happen. There are some loose spots where I almost go over the edge but I guess that's what keeps it interesting. I can blame it on the coffee. Ha!Ha! I think I love every composition that Jobim ever wrote.
Solo vibraphone version of the beautiful composition by the great composer Astor Piazzolla.
We will do 7 weeks of bebop tunes with assignments. If anyone completes all the assignments they will get a vibes workshop certificate of completion.
