TIME and SPACE

"Time and Space" is an exercise that rhythmically slices intervalic space into whole and half-step movements ascending and descending between the lower note to the higher note. By first defining the predominant interval in half-notes and then rhythmically slicing it up into various divisions of quarter notes, triplets, and simple odd tuplets (5:2 and 7:2) we can strengthen our inner feel of time using the space between the two outer notes as a reference.

New Vibraphone Piece with Piano "Glimpse"

Hello vibe workshop members!
Here is a piece I just finished composing and will be performing it in early March. It is titled; "Glimpse" it's a duet for vibraphone and piano and although it's more of a chamber contemporary music feel – I subconsciously used a few jazz harmonies and doubletime licks! This piece is based on personal experiences in my life that I express through music. Mallet dampening as well as vibraphone pedaling is not present in the recording, FYI

Body and Soul (guitar)

No vibraphone, I'm afraid, but since we talk so much about jazz on the site, I thought I would share some of my guitar playing. I started out as a guitarist and no matter how much I improve as a vibraphone player, I don't think I'll ever reach the same level of comfort. I don't play much anymore, usually just when it gets too late to practice vibes.
