by Nicholas F. Mondello
In the Hebrew language, the ancient word “Rubin" translates as “Behold, a son!"

Mika Stoltzman: If You Believe
by Dan Bilawsky
In jazz, the marimba tends to be dwarfed by its sustain-friendly metallic cousin, the vibraphone. Many fine vibes players, like Bobby Hutcherson and Stefon Harris to name just two, double on marimba, but that instrument always comes second for them--and for most jazz mallet players--and it almost never dominates a program; almost is the key word, ...
