About Me:
Now available from Vic Firth, Ed Saindon Signature mallets: "The concert with Dave Liebman was the first opportunity to use the mallets in a group setting. I was pleased with how they sounded backing up Lieb on tenor and soprano. The mallets put out a big sound and sound fat, round and full while still retaining clarity at all dynamic levels". For more information on the mallet and where to purchase, please go here: http://www.vicfirth.com/pro...
Depth of Emotion CD featuring Ed Saindon and Dave Liebman is available from ITunes, CD Baby, Ed's website and other internet sites.
Ed's book Exploration in Rhythm, Rhythmic Phrasing in Improvisation addresses the use of over-the-bar line phrasing in improvisation. The book covers phrasing of 8ths. triplets and
16th notes in 3/4, 4/4 and 5/4 as well as the phrasing of polyrhythms. The book is available at many internet book stores as well as from the Advance Music website.
Private Lessons: Ed is available for private lessons at Berklee College of Music in Boston or via Skype. For more information, email Ed at esaindon@berklee.edu

About Ed Saindon:
Coming from the "four mallet school," Ed Saindon has developed and continues to refine a pianistic approach to mallet playing which involves a consistent utilization of all four mallets via a grip he developed called The Fulcrum Grip. Saindon has absorbed and transferred the influences from the piano lineage that stretches from Waller and Tatum up to the present. Originally a drummer, Saindon began playing the vibraphone along with piano while attending Berklee College of Music in Boston from 1972-1976.
As a concert artist, Saindon has traveled throughout the U.S., Europe, Brazil, Mexico and Japan. He has played and or recorded with Dave Liebman, Ken Peplowski, Warren Vache, Kenny Werner, Mick Goodrick, Fred Hersch, Peter Erskine, Jeff Hamilton, Louie Bellson, Howard Alden, Herb Pomeroy, Dick Johnson, Dave McKenna, Marvin Stamm, George Masso, Frank Vignola, Adam Macowicz, Michael Moore and others.
In addition to performing, Saindon's other passion is music education. He is a Professor at Berklee where he has been teaching since 1976. He is also active in the field of music education as a clinician and author. Saindon is a clinician for Yamaha and Vic Firth giving clinics and residencies on vibraphone, marimba, piano, drums, jazz theory and harmony, composition and improvisation. Berklee Press has published his book Berklee Practice Method: Vibraphone and German publisher Advance Music recently issued his new book Exploration in Rhythm, Volume 1, Rhythmic Phrasing in Improvisation.
In addition to writing books, Saindon has authored many articles on music education, jazz theory and improvisation. He is currently the vibraphone and jazz mallet editor for the International Percussive Arts Society's magazine Percussive Notes. His articles have appeared in many publications including Downbeat, Percussive Notes, and Percussioner International.
Recent recordings include Key Play which features Saindon on vibes along with pianist Kenny Werner. His latest CD is Depth of Emotion which features Dave Liebman on soprano along with Saindon on vibes, piano and marimba.
