Vibraphone

So here's what we will do for 25 days starting Dec. 5th. We will post 8 bars a day for you to work on.

Take the 8 bars master them then move on to the next 8 bars. Each 8 bars will have a topic and a point to them. They will not all be related.

So get ready for 8BD

I see Yuhan hanging around on the site. She's a great vibe player from Taiwan.

Here's a cool piece (I think) she wrote.

Hi Everyone,
It's nearly turkey time in the US. I hope everyone gets to spend the day with good people eating good food. Good weather wouldn't hurt. :)

I found out today that Marimba One now makes a set of vibes that they call One Vibraphone. Has anyone played one of these? How would you rate it on sound quality, portability, quality of construction, etc.

Thanks,
Ted

I've recorded this version of Peace after I've watched Tony's lesson ;-)
and because I was a bit uppset by what is going on in America this time.
good tune to share sadness.
Peace. Illya

My temple students Travis and Salina were given the assignment to video themselves playing through the modes.

I think they did a good job! Give 'em some love!

They improvised through all of the F modes from the major key.

Joe Doubleday was an early subscriber on the site. He used to post his gigs when he was in high school and just beginning on vibes.

His mom was an airline stewardess so he would fly around the country for free taking lessons off of vibe players and fly home later in the day. Amazing!

Fast forward 8 years and he's graduated Berklee and Juliard and is a great vibe player! He did a cd with a really great clarinetist.

He said I could post a Soundcloud link to the CD for Vibesworkshop Subscribers to check out. It's great!

working on pedaling. I real like the way this one sounds, I think my time could be better in some spots, but still sound a little expressive

been working on this one! not perfect but worth sharing
