Tony talks about putting yourself in a box to practice -- here's Yo Yo Ma and Andrew Bird improvising in their box. Fun :-).

Hi Everyone !
Here is Up jumped spring I played last week for my jazz vibes exam in university of Sherbrooke (Qc).
it was very stressful to be rate, but... it's a challenge :)
Hey guys,
This is a GREAT exercise for writing, improvising, and tune learning. The idea is to write a new melody over the chord changes to an old standard tune. You can alter the harmony a little bit here and there to fit your new melody but the idea is that you could call a standard tune everyone knows, but it will sound completely different.
Hi everyone,
Tonight is Good Vibes' special one-year anniversary edition! It airs at the usual time and places but because it is three hours instead of two, the times are a little different: at 8-11pm tonight and 3-6pm on Wednesday (May 4), eastern times. Hope you can listen in.

To celebrate the succes of the introduction of the gigVibe one year ago we now have a special offer, valid until the 1st of July 2011.
You get the 3.0 octave model with our sensational blue bars, including HDS treatment, for only € 4600.
With many gigVibes sold all over the world we know this instrument is a hit in the world of tuned percussion.
vanderPlas Baileo is the only manufacturer that applies exact triple tuning of our bars.
This offers a comfortable base for others (flutes, violins, etc) to intone there instrument while performing.
Launching the carbonVibe at the Frankfurt Musikmesse was a great succes!
Everyone with a serious interest in tuned percussion was amazed by not only the looks but also the sound of the world's first carbonVibe, made by vanderPlas Baileo.
The protoype saw the light after months of hard work by Nico van der Plas and his team.
The most beautiful Weather Report Tune (IMHO)
