Just got off the phone with a few vibesworkshop members and we had a great time studying Green Dolphin Street!
Our goals are to make a solo version in C and then Eb and then we will do a facebook concert where we each play a version of…
Don't always look for reasons and explanations as to why to do something.
But I can take most of the tunes I know and play 3rds and 7ths only. Can you?
I used to really check out anything a great player could do and then I would do it. I…
Malletech LN2R Mallet review - you should get some!
Since my wife and I first moved into the same Brooklyn loft apartment in 1993 I have either been blissfully ignorant or hyper-aware of the sound of my vibraphone practicing and how it…
Since the semester at Temple's over, and I finally have a good audio setup, and I have a lot of time on my hands, I'm going to try to record David Friedman's whole book. I've already finished more than half of the etudes -- I just need to…

Today at the vibes coffeehouse someone asked "Where are all the other vibes players? Why aren't they here?"
There were 27 of us on the Zoom call today, but there are around 5000 vibesworkshop…
I'm trying to get organized here, but it's not easy for me. Since the quarantine I have been busier than I've ever been. Being online is more work than being offline!
But I would like to see which subscribers want to meet up once or…

Tony Miceli is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom…
Video footage of Cal is pretty rare, and I found this the other day on YouTube. This is the longer clip with three tunes on it - Cubana Chant, Poinciana, and Doxy.
The instrument is a Deagan 1000, and it's nice to see Hefner keepin' it…
