ive posted this in the lesson section mainly because this is more an practice session, rather than a performance. Each day i work on Gaint steps,countdown and rythmn changes to get my ear in tune .. i always make sure im singing or humming with my play and focus on staying concious with the moment ...

enjoy

This is the list of the videos of the seven tunes we played in my final recital in Porto, last 16th of July. I want to thanks to Jeffery Davis for the teaching and advising of all this period. I hope you enjoy!

I have fallen in love with Promark Milt Jackson mallets. They're unlike any other mallet I've ever used - huge oval-shaped heads, heavy weight but wound with soft yarn. They are supposedly modeled after Milt's mallets. But someone knowledgeable about vibraphone construction has warned me that these mallets can be destructive to an instrument.

He says that the weight of the large head on these mallets can actually ruin the vibe keys. I respect his opninion but I am also skeptical about this warning.
