Vibraphone

Here's me playing Blue Bossa for jl12 here at the online school. I thought I would post it for everybody. I tried to play very simple, and i shot the camera from above to see if that would be helpful.

Just started working on Etude 5. A few mistakes. Need to work on dynamics and get more comfortable with my left hand chords with two mallets.

How do you like my newly polished bars? Found a tip on TheVibe.net to use Mothers Mag & Aluminum Polish. Found it at Walmart in the automotive section.

Does cleaning the bars affect the tone? It may be my imagination but they sound a little brighter.

Johan plays my arrangement of 'On Green Dolphin Street' and does a real good job of it. The arrangement is in the 'Good Vibes Book' here.

Hang out and watch tv! Remember there's lots of lessons on the inside!

Just started learning the Friedman Etude No. 1. I need to work on getting more legato (dampen simultaneously with hitting the next note), dynamics and bringing the speed up.

Ahhh, welcome to the first etude of the Friedman book. You're about to embark on a really great journey!
