VIBRAPHONE
The vibraphone is a metal-bar percussion instrument whose motor-driven resonators give it a gently pulsing sustain. It became especially important in jazz, where players such as Lionel Hampton, Milt Jackson, and Gary Burton turned it into a lyrical improvising voice. The tag also reaches into chamber music, film colour, and the bright edge of modern percussion writing.
