Vibraphone

All about my week at the Aebersold Jazz Camp/Workshop

IndianaGlen 9 July 2011

“this one time, at band camp….”

I got home last night after spending a week at the Jamey Aebersold Jazz Workshop. While this is fresh in my mind, I thought someone may find value if I wrote about it and posted it here.

The first part is a talks about the format of the camp, the second is my personal take on the class, and a few suggestions that may make it easier if you are ever considering going.

New M55 Yay! But.....

JoePorter 9 July 2011

I received my new M55 today. I am very happy. My University has a really old M55. Comparing the new one to the old one I am really happy. Musser basically took all the small things that could have been improved and improved on them! I am really happy with this vibraphone.

However, Shipping damaged the Motor controller. It is hanging there =/ And the off light is smashed. So I will have to get them to replace that.

*****
When the damper bar is up, there is the slightest ring in my high notes "Ab and Bb". How do I get rid of that slight ring?

Thanks,

Hey Chick82!

You joined us some 2 months ago as subscriber and we quite often see you online. You even had the nice thought of wishing Tony a happy birthday on the chat... But we don't hear much from you... hardly a comment, no post...

I can see that you're living in Italy. Can you tell us more about you?.... Please!! :o)
