A wizard that lays out a series of wands like a xylophone or a marching glockenspiel so that he doesn’t have to swap them out during battle. Also he finally learned how to play Mr. Bright Side on them, though that usually results in someone nearby being reduced to a pile of s’mores scented goo.

I *am* afraid of xylophones. It's the music you hear when skeletons are dancing.

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
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
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 !!!!
