as a mallet percussionist i randomly experience pure fury because of how rude non-band people or non-mallet players will be to mallet percussionists because they call an instrument the wrong name.

so heres the main mallet instruments seen in marching bands, and i think at the same time, concert ones.

these are glockenspiels, also called bells. NOT XYLOPHONES. glockenspiels or bells

theyre small, metal instruments typically played with plastic or hard acrylic mallets and have a high-pitched sound that rings out very well. they do not have resonators

these are xylophones.

xylophones are slightly bigger instruments, made of real or synthetic wood. they have very thick keys and small resonators. they can be played with hard yarn mallets or acrylic ones, and have a higher pitched sound (although usually lower than a glockenspiel)

these are vibraphones.

theyre metal with thinner keys, and theyre yellow sometimes !!!!!!! usually silver though. they have a pedal that control soft pads under the keys, which is how they make both muffled / shorter sounds, as well as loud ringing ones. they have bigger resonators than xylos

these are marimbas. MY FAVORITE EVER !!!!!!!! i heart marimbas <333

marimbas are the biggest mallet instrument, even getting up to FIVE octaves. they are made of rosewood or synthetic wood and have massive resonators. they have a deep, rich sound to them and are very heavy. they dont have a pedal or anything and they have somewhat thick keys that get thinner towards the center.

there you go :3 a silly little mallet percussionists ramble about instruments !!!!

Hmm...anyway you know why I'm here-

SK Moon based questions!

1. Would Moon own an electric keyboard, the ones where you can change the sounds? Also I do want to know if he would like the Vibraphone (pedal pressed, motor off).

Video for reference: https://youtu.be/_otBogLhygw

2. Can he view all the cameras feeds in his head? If he can, does he view all camera feeds at once or 2-3 at a time?

3. When he got hired to be security staff for the amusement park, was it for the Head of security? Or did he start from the bottom and work up to the top?

No dark questions for now. Please have a decent day!

I can see Moon having something like that; either to pass the time or to entertain the kiddos. I think he'd be skilled at the Vibraphone, it's a pretty sound.

2. He can view the feeds of any camera he hacks into. He can view one at a time, but can blink through them. And only he can see them, of course.

3. He did have to work his way up, but it didn't take long for him to earn his current title as head of security.

and thanks you too! ^w^

Here's Jazzdragon 13 from 2009.

I'd been wanting to try to draw something with a keyboard-like arrangement for quite some time. I had to wait for my technical skill to catch up with my imagination, and finally, it did. I was a percussionist in junior high, and as the only one who could read music even a little bit, I often played the vibraphone (with the oscillators turned off). It has a more mellow tone than a glockenspiel or metal xylophone, but of course it resonates different from a marimba or other wooden xylo-type. I thought that a floating version of the instrument would be a lot of fun, and allow me to do some crazy, dynamic movement and curves.

This was drawn with my ever-trusty Prismacolor pencils over watercolor.

João Pedro Oliveira (*1959). Vox Sum Vitae. Vibraphone, electronics. (2011).

Vox Sum Vitae (I am the voice of life) is an inscription in a church bell in Strasbourg. In one of my trips to perform an organ concert in Germany, on a Sunday morning I was woke suddenly with the sound of hundreds of church bells, announcing the early morning church service. This piece is a representation of that sound image.

Percussionists please listen

Man you know marching band might have stolen four years of my life and I still have nightmares about it ten years later but

This song would make such a slapping percussion section warm-up oh my GOD

I wish I knew how to write music lol

All the parts are there!!! Pretty much

Like the marimba part would be the most complicated (but certainly not impossible for high schoolers) I think and idk if the snare stuff is easy or hard but it's already written in there as the typewriter and I lov e this song

Vibes/bells would have it pretty easy which is better for beginner players anyway

Idk about the rest though

Anyway just wanted to share ;-; I would send it to my old percussion instructor because he's a master at writing / transcribing but he ended up being a creepy PDF file :') rip

Don't forget it: GCSE free composition

This is for my free composition for my music GCSE. I was planning on adding more lyrics and other stuff but I couldn't for the life of me get the singing to sound good or the background music with it so I just deleted all that, left the bits I actually liked and here we are. I have to write some kind of essay to go with this and for the lyrics I'll say something like "the lyrics are intentionally vague so that the mood of the piece can be interpreted in many different ways" when in reality it's a song about me complaining about how Sparx Maths was mandatory homework every week (it's not any more, but I wrote the lyrics about a month ago).

Lyrics:

oh no but it's alright,

when you've never got to be the one who does it all night,

and you always got to do it no matter what you're saying;

keep on going back to play it.

oh but no this isn't fair,

it doesn't seem to mark it right,

and it's always got to be the one that nags you everywhere:

don't forget it, don't forget it.

The lyrics I scrapped (in a higher pitch):

oh but it never goes away,

the weekends metiforically

just a countdown to the day.

even though you hate it

with all your heart

it's only mandatory

so go take part.

Ignore the things

and follow the strings,

it never sings

nor does it have wings.

No, looking through a window pane

can make you go insane.

Keep going, don't revise,

keep on keep on keep on
