Just thought I'd throw this out there.
Georgia - practicing some four to the bar left hand with left foot hi hats on this classic song. There were some hats in the practice room and I figured I would give it a go. Needs some work still. And I can't blame the drummer. Ha!Ha!
Although I fail all the time, I try to be open minded.
And I think when I see someone doing something I would never want to do, I'm glad they are doing it and I hope it helps the instrument in some way.
This is not what I think the vibraphone is. But again, who am I to decide what a vibraphone is and how to use it!
And I'm glad people are pushing the envelope. Get it?
Is this a Musser?
Someone several years back sent me a photo of there vibes. They were in the middle of the jungle of Ghana. The nearest anything was 50 miles. OMG! I couldn't believe that.
I imagine there are vibes in some pretty strange places.
Well, I've known John Piper for a while now. And he's a real character who does crazy things. He learned firefighting a while back is probably the only firefighting vibe player in the world. Hmm, I wonder.
Hi vibes lover in this lesson I'll talk about some new technique I developed while writing my new book called AFORISMI - 11 etudes for solo vibraphone
In this lesson I'll talk about the intro of AFORISMA #6 - CALYPSO where i'm playing 5 notes voicings preceding or postponing the root to a 4 notes open voicing.
Here you can listen to it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNcVr3hZJR8&t=3s
Check this out. Since John is hanging around on the site I thought I'd post this.
John is a musical master technician on the instrument. He really does a good job of using technique in a musical way.
I don't know if he thinks this way, but I always thought of him as a concert vibraphonist.
I like listening to him a lot.
Hi Everyone,
Good Vibes enters its 8th year with the May show. And I was told it probably wouldn't last six months. Thank you, musicians! Thank you, listeners! Thank you, WWFM and NPR!
As I typically do with every anniversary show, I play favorites from the past year. Since I can only pick 18-20 tunes out of approximately 110 from the previous 11 months, it's not easy. And this year it came out to only 18 because of song lengths.
