From a recent concert I did. Check out Tom Lawton on piano!

Ok, here is my one minute gig on TV. Man, 1 minute is too short!! It all had to go fast, you know, it's TV... So I missed some F&%"n notes here and there.
And the soundcheck we did without the main speaker system, so we had some trouble playing in sync as you can hear. I think I had about 30 meters of cable between my vibes and the mixer.

Anyway hope you guys like it!

In the interview we talk about this site!! So that's good promotion for Vibesworkshop in Holland!

Here's the introduction of me at a dutch TV show I played in recently.

I'll post my (1 minute!) version of Recordame next...

I finally figured out how to record straight to mp3 on my portable recorder so I don't have to convert files to post!

Here is a taste of my gig from today playing songs for a civil engineer's society holiday party.

"My Favorite Things"
"Christmas Time Is Here"
"Don't You Worry 'Bout A Thing"
"The Christmas Song"

p.s. The recorder was sitting on top of the amp.

Friedman Etude! Insult my playing!

Another Friedman etude! Criticism (constructive and otherwise) is not only accepted, but encouraged. Thanks!

As you may know, I have a Premier 751, freshly restored by my husband. Still we had parts to change, advice to get for this very first time. John Daly got me a great address: Orchestral Percussion.

I’d like to introduce this one man company: Paul Jefferies has been of great help, advice and got me some lost parts. He's surely not the only one, but he's a true vibes geek… and who knows he may some day save your instrument?

For those interested in gig bags for your vibraphone, here's some info.......In 2007, I had Peter at the Mooradian Co., Boston, MA, make custom bags for the Musser M55. I provided the dimensions. One bag, with a padded divider, carries the resonators. The other bag carries the frame and pedal bar assembly. Both have carrying handles and shoulder straps. The bags are very durable and have plenty of room to store other items like my mallets, and misc. supplies. At the time they cost about $450.00 - Definitely worth the investment!
