[JosephGlaser]

[bigdude627]

She makes me want to learn japanese cross grip... whatever it's called. and maybe get those mallet cushion things :o

[glowstikdisco]

its called musser grip, my friend

[SHdrummerguy08]

@glowstikdisco false. Keiko Abe uses traditional grip

[glowstikdisco]

@SHdrummerguy08 same thinngg.

[RYANtheBassMan]

@glowstikdisco Not the same thing at all.

[glowstikdisco]

@RYANtheBassMan right, because you're the all knowing source of marimba knowledge

[RYANtheBassMan]

@glowstikdisco Well, since I'm right, you just validated my new title. Thank you. Sincerely, the all knowing source of marimba knowledge. But not, seriously, they're different.

[tympaniplayer]

Its traditional grip

[AreY0uExperienced]

i thought keiko used cross hammer grip

[cjbolton3]

How old is she in this video?

[drummerboy1138]

Such a beautiful song.

ahh, if only my school had a nice 5 octave marimba. or three.

haha.

[cookingwithmonkey]

thats the john mcentire grip!!

[ngnjr1229]

what's the john mcentire grip? i have never heard of it?

[drummerboy1138]

lol

[Grova]

That's not the Burton grip. That's the traditional cross grip. The inside mallet goes on top rather than the outside. If you look at her thumb and finger, they are shaped like a claw, which is how she controls the intervals.

[fuckmydollyy]

is it just me, or does keiko drag a few times towards the middle?

anyway,a great piece

I plan to play it someday

[whatiskungfan]

I never knew she does Burton grip, haha....i used Stevens for all.

[malletstud]
