Guitar-vibraphone duo in noon recital
Two young musicians have formed what they call an ambient music duo, playing vibraphone and guitar. They will perform at noon Oct. 18, at First Lutheran Church in downtown Johnstown.
The duo, known as Resolute Vibration, is next in the Tuesday Noon Recital Series. It grew out of the collaboration of Alex Price of Johnstown and Michael Garbett of Pittsburgh in a wide variety of genres.
