Hey Everybody,

Just like the minor 7th chord exercise. These exercises are great for beginners it makes you think about harmony.

Vibraphone Technique: Dampening and Pedaling
By: David Freeman

Etude #3

Lesson Material with instructor Tony Miceli.

Still think I can have a lighter touch to the instrument, and for some reason I have a few “buzzing” sounds as I dampen a bar with the mallet. I’m guessing the buzz comes from not dampening the bar firm enough?

A little Saturday morning practice before heading out to mow the lawn. Ha!Ha! Playing "Don't Forget (Renato's Theme"), a beautiful song composed by the great Pat Metheny. I love Pat's writing and the sound and feel of my M39 Vic Firth mallets.

Here's a great version of 23 by my student Morgan Walbridge

Hi
here´s some more music i composed for the detective novel. ths is very very simple but i like the possibilities of the malletkat to add spacey sounds. it fits perfect to the mood in the story which is very sad and dark as you can hear :)

i also added donnerblech (don´t know the english word for it) and cymbal played with bow.

as i said nothing fancy to play but i like the mood and the recording.

Hi everyone,

In my first post here on Vibesworkshop.com, I introduced some "Controlled Articular Rotations" and also some Progressive and Regressive Angular Isometric Loading (Pails/Rails) to address wrist/arm/shoulder passive flexibility and control.

Today we're moving in a slightly different direction. I'm introducing the "Wall Slide" exercise. This is an absolute "must-do" movement to maintain a healthy low/mid back and shoulders.

A few choruses recorded today by a student in a private lesson. We were talking about left hand comping on There Will Never Be Another You.
