I'm Old Fashioned - Solo Vibraphone
“I’m Old Fashioned” - solo vibraphone version of one of my favorite standards from Jerome Kern and Johnny Mercer. I'm focusing here on utilizing the entire range of the instrument with a variety of solo vibraphone concepts that incorporate all four mallets. Some of the techniques include the use of counterpoint, various left hand accompaniment techniques, double stops (octaves, 6ths, 3rds) and four mallet voicings. These solo vibraphone concepts/techniques and more will be showcased via examples on standards as part of my solo vibraphone book project that I'm working on.

Moment's Notice by John Coltrane
“Moment’s Notice”: A somewhat lengthy “stream of consciousness” and experimental practice session version of this classic by the great John Coltrane. I'm starting here without any specific technique in mind or any preconceived agenda and just seeing what happens and develops. Sometimes we lose and sometimes we win. There are a few times here where I almost “fall off the cliff” but I think it's not necessarily about perfection. For me, it’s the process that’s the focus and not specifically the final outcome.
