Hi All,
January's Good Vibes dates are January 6 and 9. My favorite tune I'll be playing is "Vian-De" by the Dave Pike Set. Another favorite is a classic country tune, Hank Williams' "Hey Good Lookin'" played by Steve Hobbs. Yet another is "Escualo," Gary Burton playing Astor Piazzolla. And then...
Hey, they're all my favorites. Tune in for more.

Try dar.fm for recording the show to replay at a convenient time. Haven't tried it myself yet.

Enjoy the holidays, everyone. Hope all your gigs are rewarding ones.

i´ve been practicing this tune several days now.
i tried to stay clear and simple on this take.

So if we all join we can then experiment with google hangouts. maybe impromptu concerts, etc.!

@marie - don't forget to put this in the newsletter. yeah????

Check out this Slingerland/Deagan vibraphone I found in the corner of my lesson room... It looks like it is in pretty good shape and it sounds very good. Motor is probably broken, but I have to fix the power cord first to find out.

Also check out the attachments.

Any of you guys seen one of these before? Any facts you want to share?

When Love Prevails by David Burge

My father composed this four movement work for vibraphone in 2003. The premier (video above) was done with dance (SanDiego Ballet) but the piece works very well as a solo offering. Each movement has its own character and draws from a variety of musical styles....avant garde, odd meter, lyrical, etc. The music is published by CF Peters. I have a better audio version and am happy to send the files if anyone is interested.

Hi Folks:

My band, Nós Novo, is doing our 2nd Annual Very Special Xmas Special tonight at Cornelia Street Cafe at 9pm. One long set of jigs, reels, old songs, and a few carols, woven into our repertoire and sounding like us. $10 cover for one long set... should be great fun.

It's that time of year again; a time for the endlessly curious combination of ancient ritual and online shopping; cloves and cinnamon wafting through Walmart, trees brought inside and dressed up, Lady Gaga singing about the infant christ on tv.
