Our numbers were not mighty, but where else would you ever find such a concentration of world class vibraphone talent?
Mainieri, Friedman, Harris, Wolf, Miceli... and many more.
Those of us in attendance had a blast, playing, listening, and talking about all things related to the vibes.

The Saturday night jam saw some great pairings... Mainieri/Friedman, Harris/Miceli, just to name a couple. The sound was much more dialed in this year, thanks to the efforts of Randy Sutin, Leigh Stevens, Tom Meyers and the Malletech crew.

Enjoy!

David Kovins Jazz Vibe Boogie Original Composition

I have been communicating with Fisher Ishell about his new Vibraphone Pickup system. I was curious about it because it uses contact microphones instead of piezo pickups. I have a lot of experience with contact microphones on the acoustic bass (that is how I found out about Fishers products....His Contact mic for Bass is gaining in popularity for its natural acoustic sound)

Triste has always been a favorite of mine. Lots of VW members have posted really nice versions of this tune and here's mine.

Hi vibesworkshoppers,

hope you like it.
Happy new year!
Best,
Stefan

GMV-Chapter 1 (part 2) "A run run"
"A run run" is a traditional galician christmas song, which is very known in Galicia. I´ve written and arrangement-study for solo vibes so in this part (part 2) you can practice pedaling, dampening, reharmonization and modulation. The video and the PDF contain the same material (you can watch and listen it in the video and read it in the PDF).

Happy New Year to everybody!
GMV (Galician Music for Vibes) is a collection of lessons where I´ll try to show/share part of the traditional galician music adapted to the vibraphone (in order to improof and develope many topics). I´ve been working on it the last 6 months and my purpose is posting a new chapter every month. Through the lessons we´ll can practice melody, harmony, dampening, pedaling, solo vibes, ... I really hope you have fun and that helps you.
