I got this from Christos FB account... and I loved it!
To me a very good example of mallets in "popular" but good music... In Greek! Cool huh? And with marimba: even more original, no?
Enjoy!

Hi vibes players!
One day I was practicing scales and I thought: "all the work with scales, areas, voicings, etc, in vibes is about making pictures in the keyboard!" then I said: "If I know the picture well all the rest is easy", ergo "I…
I would like to buy David Friedmann's "Air Sculpture" but have not found it yet.
Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Hey Vibes Workshop,
I was in Berlin for a few days, and had the opportuny to meet again the "Friedman Clan", Charly and Simon.

I just enjoyed the lesson of Mike Pinto. I'm a fan of his CD "Prologue"... I totally dig the sound of vibes with sax and voice. So now I have a band in this formation.
This is a composition of mine called "strange country". It's just a…

For example...
In the A section you have a B-7b5 to E7 to A-....
for the E7 I use a G triad as the upper…
This is the first etude of the Friedman book. Make sure you dampen the previous note exactly when you play the next note. Pedal should be kept down during the whole etude. Try to get a nice legato sounding melody.
Today started out a little rough, only got about 3 hours of sleep and had to run off to music theory, mail my application for that whole composition thing and then I ran down to the local drum store to pick up some mallets (Balter 23Rs,…
In Part 2 I talk about the specifics on how to use the triads with the dominant 7 chords to create harmonic movement.
For example.
The G7 on the 2nd measure would have an E triad as the upper structure. So voicing it out would look like…
