Hey everyone, I just wanted to let all of you know that I have a new book out! It's titled "Sight-Reading Skills for the Mallet Percussionist" and it's published by K. Wylie Publications. For those of you who don't know me, I teach at multiple schools with students from 6th grade up through university. This is a project I've been working on a long time and it's finally finished.
I hope you will forgive the shameless plug, but I thought I'd let everyone know. Here's a link for it:
Finally, I'm posting the promised version of "Tony's Tune". :)
I'm very sorry for being late, but I had to practice marimba (2 mexican dances) a lot, just after the workshop.
It ended up almost like an etude for me, because I wanted to do certain things and this is still not the final version I think. The time is kind of shaky sometimes, I have to work on that, but I didn't want to do a rubato version. However, hope you like it.
And yes, Tony, I learned the lyrics. :)
Hi All- Sorry if this is a tired subject around here; I haven't been by in awhile. Just got a snail-mail percussion catalog and noticed the Malletech 'Love' Vibraphone is finally being shipped. Anyone besides Gavin and Ed Smith interacted with this thing? Here are some thoughts from reading the brochure and watching Ed play it:
hi again this night i started to remember this next tune. it is coral. this was the first ballad i learned in my life with peace from horace silver. the time I was listenig was the time i discovered gary playing. this time gary play this very often and it was one of my principal references. this is my small and humble tribute i made this day to gary. a nice tune.

Hi all,
I was going through some old gigs and stumbled upon this version of Autumn In New York, one of my favorite ballads! This is from Smalls back in October. Enjoy!
This is our arrangement of the tune, there are a few blips here and there but would love to hear your comments, I have edited some of the gtr solo.
Are you guys listening to our next TOTM Fried Bananas?
What tune is it based on?
