That's really funny! I was just having a conversation about playing something with one grip in one hand and one in the other! It's a good idea but my teacher would have killed me if i did it in front of him. Good job by the way!
Stickmasterrr this is jazz. Anything and everything Gershwin wrote (btw you spelled Gershwin wrong in the title) was all jazz. He mainly wrote Rhapsody in Blue for two reasons. 1. Lincoln's Birthday, 2. So people wouldn't associate jazz strictly with swing. Well, there is your daily dose of music history for ya haha.
@candlewick163 Actually, he mainly wrote it for money...it was a commission. The elements were inspired by 1920s New York City, and train rides to and fro. It happened to become insanely popular
And in essence, jazz is a performing art, not a compositional art. Yeah, there are jazz standards, and there are real books and what not, but Jazz is not playing a composition, Jazz is playing music, and expressing.
pretty sure this guy lives somewhere in asia. therefore, he uses traditional grip. stevens is a western kind of thing, everyone in asia uses traditional. it's not a bad grip, just not as popular as stevens in america.
yes, just because i feel better in my right hand with burton left hand with (sort of) stevens. but not always. also, i usally need wider range in my left and stronger/straighter stroke in my right.
im working on mine. i have 2 drumsets, a marimba, xylophone, vibraphone, timpani, and assorted hand drums, but you have way more talent than I do. Keep it up
I was looking for Marimba Jazz ...and I found your vidéo...I enjoy it....very cleanly playing....I am going to get myself a Marimba to ply for my dancing classes....You are a good muisicien....
