An excerpt from David Friedman's Workshop. Here he's talking about common tones.

This is a beautiful sound! After hearing 16 vibraphones in chaos during warmups before class, it was great to hear them playing the same tune. What a beautiful sound!

Young musicians beginning their career at this level...

Hi!

I've been chatting whith Marie recently and I had to promise her to put some pics of my little son playing vibes on the site. He and his mother are using my vibes in two ways: as table for baby clothing and other (leightweight) stuff and also just as a big fine sounding toy. Yea and the vibes' frame helps my son with learing to stand up and walk.
So if you ever consider acquiring a set of vibes have the manyfold purposes for kids in mind!

Cheers Stefan

P.S. Tony can you telle me how to add the pics to the post please?
