Midnight yesterday evening. Far late enough as bed time for wise people... But I had not touched my vibes since I was back from the workshop... I closed the living room's door and took back my lonely mallets...

The rats and fish were quiet in the opposite corner. Ok, cool... But then I heard it. That noisy and disturbing clock on the cheminee that I always need to take off and put in the bathroom when I record something.

But this time I didn't hear it the same. It had become a lovely and soft 60 bpm metronome!

here are 2 simple waltzes for members to have a look at and maybe post their version, just be careful with the coda on the first one its a bit tricky, the second one is pretty straight forward, enjoy.

PS. maybe Tony might consider giving a set of mallets to the first person to post any of the tunes.

Here's a question: What scales would you put to these chords?

I thought this was a pretty good performance of etude 26. Let's see what David thinks!

Here's a tambourine that I made over the summer.

All of the parts added to this $20 tambourine are from a coal mine that I worked at.

Hope you like :)

Hello everyone,

Here's a recent article on chord scale theory. Let me know if there are any questions.

Here's a chord study on the days of wine and roses.

i've asked behn to do one of these also. Let's see if he has time.

This is a duo I have with another student of David, Julius Heise.
He is playing marimba and me on vibes. A kind of minimal piece of mine called Irrlicht.
