Putting a radio show together turns out not to be so simple. There’s the tempo of each tune to consider, like the fast paced “Yardbird Suite” (Gibbs) and “Alice’s Journey,” (Gillece) and the slow pace of “Stargazer” (Fisher) and “Dusk,” (Rossy). Mid-tempo tunes like “My One and Only,” (Redd) and “Frankie and Johnny” (Wolf) help weave everything together. There should be variety among the composers. Jazz icons like Ellington and Charlie Parker share a spotlight with the newer kids in the flock, (Mancini).

Hey my fellow vibes players,

I'd like to share with you an indiegogo campaign I am running to raise money to build a recording studio in Cali, Colombia. This studio would be built at the residence of Diego Obregón, an important Colombian marimba player. I was introduced to him by Edmar Castañeda, and I had a chance to study with Obregón last August while I was in Colombia. I will be going to Colombia in January of 2020 and spending two months there, studying and collaborating with Obregón and other Colombian musicians.
