There are two groups of vibraphone players: 1) Gary Burton 2) All the others Gary is in a class by himself. He does more with 4 mallets than most pianists do with 10 fingers. This Lesson Series shows that he's a great teacher, too. Thanks Gary and Vic Firth!

I love vibraphone and marimba. I'm surprised it isn't more popular. Why aren't more people trying to be like Gary Burton and Bobby Hutcherson?

Very nice introduction to the vibraphone by Gary, and I do agree with him that the vibraphone (and other mallet instruments) is the easiest instrument to start learning. Therefore it was no coincidence that mallet instruments were chosen by Carl Orff for his Orff-Schulwerk and by Satis Coleman for her elementary music teaching. Regarding the history of the vibraphone, however, I believe e.g. the Wikipedia article "Vibraphone" gives a little more accurate account.

What's the thing called which makes it have tremelo?

@glennhenrich992 8 лет назад

The name of the instrument comes from the 'vibrato'. It is created when fans in the top of the resonating pipes are rotated by means of an electric motor. Some vibes players like Burton and Red Norvo have chosen to never use this motorised effect. Others, like Milt Jackson-slow motor, or Lionel Hampton--fast motor, made the sound part of their style.

Glenn Henrich Interesting. I am amazed that something as radical as this was accepted with open arms into a form of music that is so infamously parochial & traditional as classical music is.
