Here is another video of my friend Andrei Pushkarev with violinist Gidon Kremer and his Kremerata.
This is Andrei's arrangement of Piazolla's Fuga y Misterio. Sounds good to me!
Enjoy,

This is a video of a classical vibes player (a friend of mine, actually) playing Bach. He studied with the same teacher I did in Ukraine and has virtually made a living playing Bach on the vibes... and a good living at that. He is currently touring with a Latvian violiinst Gidon Kremer, who is very big in Europe.
He plays 'jazz' as well... but it is a more 'planned out' jazz than what most of us strive for.
He has a couple other videos up on youtube but the quality isn't very good.

Hello everyone,
I just added several more videos to YouTube. The clips are from a gig (outside of Chicago) which took place on April 20th, 2009. The band features: Rodrigo Villanueva - drums, Doug Stone - soprano and tenor sax, John Tate upright bass and me on vibes. The list of tunes include: Black Orpheus Part 1 & 2 along with my compositions The Healing, The Last Goodbye, Deep Hearts and Pure Spirit.
This in an ebay listing for a 1920s Deagan Vibra-Harp. It was designed to be attached to an organ and is very different than today's instruments. The listing contains a lot of interesting information and many photos. It's worth a look.

Milt and Bobby. They always pull down Milt stuff so watch it now before it's too late (dixit Tony Miceli)...
So believe him and watch! (MN)
Daily Motion Introduction:
Jazz vibes giant Milt Jackson (1923 - 1999) in one of his last performances. With him, Michael LeDonne on piano, Pierre Boussaguet on bass, and the legendary Mickey Roker on drums. At this point, Milt Jackson brings Bobby Hutcherson onstage for a duet on the venerable standard "Lady Be Good", a fitting finale for this great concert, and it's roger and out from Salzau, Germany, 1999.
