Vibes Solo etude: Una danza per te (G. Perin)

This month I'm sharing with you one of my composition that I've transcribed for vibes solo especially for you:
The tune is dedicated to the memory of my mother and it's called "Una danza per te".

You will work on how to play a good melody but also dampening and pedaling, nuance and phrasing.
Is important to keep the comping lower than the melody and try to play the theme as a singer would play it: in fact there are also words because the tune was written as a song.

Dampening on the Vibraphone

Dampening on the Vibraphone - "You Must Believe In Spring" composed by Michel Legrand with lyrics by Alan and Marilyn Bergman. Playing the melody on this beautiful song with a focus on using a variety of dampening techniques throughout the clip. Techniques include two hand dampening as well as one hand dampening techniques using Slide Dampening and Hand Dampening.
