Contemporary Mallet Method - by Jerry Tachoir
This text provides the newcomer to the vibraphone or marimba with valuable information on many of the basic mallet techniques. In addition, it provides a clear understanding of beginning jazz theory and offers some excellent musical exercises. This book is intended for those keyboard-mallet percussionists who have an interest in four-mallet playing. This often neglected technique allows the percussionist to play more complicated music, and often makes the execution of musical passages easier and clearer than playing with only two mallets. Except for chapter 5 on vibraphone dampening, this book and the techniques it offers can be applied to all of the mallet instruments. Difficulty: Beginning, 72 pages.
