Forum Topic: Mallet Wrapping PLEASE

Can someone please post a video or some easy to follow instructions on how to wrap mallets for those of us that are a bit slow. I want to wrap my own mallets and find a good sound and I think a video on how to do it would be great.

Also, when/if you post it, make it viewable by all members. LOL

I'm subscribing when I get money, I swear!

Thanks,

Bach on Vibes - The Proof!

This is a video of a classical vibes player (a friend of mine, actually) playing Bach. He studied with the same teacher I did in Ukraine and has virtually made a living playing Bach on the vibes... and a good living at that. He is currently touring with a Latvian violiinst Gidon Kremer, who is very big in Europe.

He plays 'jazz' as well... but it is a more 'planned out' jazz than what most of us strive for.

He has a couple other videos up on youtube but the quality isn't very good.
