Vibes Workshop with David Friedman in Poland! April 22-29th

Hi Everybody,

I'm doing a very special vibraphone workshop as part of a marimba duo workshop in a beautiful castle in Poland from the 22nd till the 29th of April. We still have some spaces available. It'll be intense and intimate.
Everybody lives, eats and studies in the castle. I'm really looking forward to it. If you're interested, contact: marimbaduo@gmail.com

Beware you can get these

As you are going along your established route in life playing vibes, marimba or whatever, be aware that you can obtain some serious injuries that you may or may not have heard of. Below is a picture of me just after I got out of the hospital this past Monday. The injury I have is a "Trigger Finger". These are very painful and most of the time it requires surgery for complete relief. I have now had five of these and all have occurred (excepting the very first one) in a very short period of time.
