Let's add what you find to the Archive! :-)
I hear some stuff similar to Walt Dickerson. I mean the out playing. The instrument does lend itself to playing a lot of crazy notes. I think when musical players do this it's great.
That's me bringing the vibes to the people at my wedding over the weekend. I did a little version of Stevie Wonder's "You and I" before the first dance. She let me buy a second instrument (M75) last year, so I think she's a keeper!
Pure Imagination from Willie Wonka and The Chocolate Factory. One of my favorite songs. One of my favorite versions is from Joe with beautiful singing by Kenny Washington. Please check that out if you haven't heard that yet.
Here's Evelen Glennie playing the vibes with a symphony.
I can't figure her out. Not that I have to, but I'm very curious.
First - Check her chops out. Amazing IMHO
Listen to her sound. Amazing. Beautiful!
I'm just not understanding what she does. Listen to the last note of the piece. She's early. Is the conductor supposed to follow her? Does she hear the band? Or feel the vibrations? Was this just a mistake?
Hello Vibes Workshop members,
I'm very happy to announce that my book, "The Band Teacher's Percussion Guide: Insights into Playing and Teaching Percussion", (https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-band-teachers-percussion-gu…) has just been published by Oxford University Press.
I just started improvising on one of my favorites; Up Jumped Spring, by F.H. Can you guess who that is?
If not you'll have to do minimal research! :-) I thought it would be a nice change to start the melody in the bass.
Just thought I'd throw this out there.
Georgia - practicing some four to the bar left hand with left foot hi hats on this classic song. There were some hats in the practice room and I figured I would give it a go. Needs some work still. And I can't blame the drummer. Ha!Ha!
