This one's in Eb, and there's a few different rhythmic challenges in his etude. Also, there's a couple of subtle tune quotes in here! If anyone can guess both of them, I will send them a free download copy of my Mindset album :)
You must make your guesses on this post though!
Revisiting a beautiful song written by the great bassist Steve Swallow. I first learned this composition while studying with Gary as a student at Berklee in the 70s. Steve wrote so many great compositions and this is certainly one of them.
SO... I finally have my Imperial here and in one piece. It is a somewhat rare model 55C... yes, those are black bars. I think she is likely either a 1941 or 1942 vintage. She needs some work, but she is doing well.
I drove down Magnolia Street to the house where she was, the whole town was lined with magnolia trees, and it turns out that she lived not far from there in a town called Magnolia most of her life, so I have named her Miss Magnolia.
Audio will follow once I get the kinks ironed out of her. There are a few little issues, but she is gonna be just fine.

Here's an etude that focuses on articulation. Notice the accents and staccato marks on the upbeats of 1 on each system? Try using a dead stroke to achieve the articulation on those lines. Articulation is the toughest thing on the vibes, so practice this one hard!
Working on the classic "Alice in Wonderland" in a practice session this past week while focusing on several solo vibraphone techniques for playing in 3/4. I was inspired way back by Bill Evans' classic interpretation of this song on the Live at the Village Vanguard recording with Bill, Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian.
I'm planning on recording a tutorial at some point dealing with playing solo vibraphone on 3/4 tunes. There are a quite a few things to think about and work on in this area.
