This is the first part of my lessons on my original composition - Solitude. I am talking about how to practice playing and moving around open fifths. I use them throughout my piece as accompaniment and think they are a great tool to have for solo vibraphone.

Hi everyone!
I've just released my new composition for solo vibraphone called Solitude. I have been spending a lot of time in quarantine thinking about what sounds I like to hear on the vibes and how to showcase them. This piece is the result of that and I am very excited about it. I hope that you all can check it out!

I'm almost done recording the first 20 (doing them in a weird order) and they are all somewhere on this site or on my YouTube channel.

Stride popped up on the site the other day, so after practicing Tony's stride stuff a lot and watching all his videos on it, I'm trying it out with a few standards! The first is Jerome Kern's "Pick Yourself Up," loosely inspired by Aaron Diehl's version. Let me know what you think!

Our first Pop Up Class! We studied Green Dolphin Street!!!!

I pick a time announce it, which ever subscribers can make it, we study something and then we perform! That is is Pop Up Class!

Here is our performance!

I tried some recordings using my malletkat and my vibe with audacity.

Stay healthy!

"Everything Happens To Me" - Exploring on the vibraphone while playing over the piano track.

Always a work in progress but also fun at the same time.

Man, I think he gets it, totally. This is really some amazing marimba playing! IMHO
