Hey VW!

Tony suggested a few months ago for me to create a video with tips about mics and recording. I decided to do this in a popular Youtube-type tutorial format, also designed to share here. Hope it is helpful and informative!

Cheers,

Happy Mini Concert Day! I usually do several takes when I record solo pieces but I tried my best to treat this as a real concert - here's my take 2 on Stablemates and Have You Met Miss Jones.

A few notes, thinking of David Friedman and Tony Miceli...
Sorry, because of the confinement, it's a practice vibraphone, without the tubes (resonators), I play with the only sticks I could find.

For my mini concert I played three Acadian pieces from Prince Edward Island, Canada. I was so tempted to re-do this after flubbing some parts I usually play really well, but I treated it like a concert and played it just once.

Repertoire:
La Fougue des Fées - Vishtèn
Shetland's Magical Bus/En cas d'avarie - Vishtèn
The Brae Reel - Eddy Arsenault

not really a mini concert but at least something!

David Tony and i did our masterclass with Morgan,Jared and Oliver yesterday and jared played a beautiful version of peace by horace silver for us.
for some reason i never enjoyed playing that tune so much but after the class i thought to myself, that i want to change that and just played it for the rest of the evening. i went into this zone were you kinda forget how long you‘ve been playing one song and then decided to try a version. so here it is:
