- As a five-time Grammy Award-winning musician, Gary Burton is one of the most commercially successful mallet players in history. For the better part of his professional career, Burton has used his position to help educate and mentor the next generation of musical talent, teaching at institutions around the world.
Vic Firth is excited to present Gary's 8-part Vibraphone Masterclass series to you, recorded backstage in Boston's Symphony Hall. In this series, Burton covers the full gamut of common questions on the instrument -- from it's history to his famous 4 mallet grip.
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?
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
still like to hear the vibrato giving the instrument its unique sound
check out DAVE PIKE my all time favorite
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.
thanks for this video
What's the thing called which makes it have tremelo?
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.

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.

Wow forget bass. I wanna play vibes!!
Forget drums. I'll get two more sticks and pretend I'm Gary Burton.
Yes. That is true.
