Hello Brian, do you have any marimba duets that can be played on 4 1/3 octave marimba. the school in our area don't seem to have 4 1/2 or 5 octave marimbas. any suggestions would be helpful.
Hi guys ! I'm thinking about building my own wooden vibraphone, but first, can somebody tell me the difference between Xylopfone, Vibraphone and Marimbas ? how the notes position works, it's like the piano ? and another thing, the tubes that go down and almost touch the floor are amplifiers right ?
+André Lourenço Vibraphones are not made of wood. I think you have your instruments mixed up. Xylophones are small and made of wood. They have high pitched bars that you play with hard mallets. Marimbas are essentially larger versions of Xylophones. The instruments in the video are marimbas. Vibraphones are made of metal and have a pedal to dampen the sound of the notes. When you push the pedal with your foot, the bars ring. When it is up, the bars have a short, non-ringing sound. The tubes are technically called resonators, but amplifiers isn't wrong.
We used NJZ6 and NJZ4 (lowest mallet) by Innovative Percussion for the outer sections. For the middle section the blue mallets are She-e Wu (WU4) and the red are Kevin Bobo (KB11, by Malletech). Hope that helps!
Hello Brian, do you mind if I play cajon and darbuka of top of this video? I have some cool ideas for this, it will be playing on video and your video will be shown as well. Thanks
As far as I know, the only way to get this is still from the composer directly. You may contact Adi Morag by emailing moragadi (at) gmail (dot) com. I noticed their website is down right now...not sure if you'll get a hold of Adi or not. Good luck, though!
Hey! I am Percussion at Suny Fredonia, and me and buddy of mine are obsessed with this song. Would it be possible to tell us where you found the music to purchase it?
