Mallet Control for the Xylophone (Marimba, Vibraphone, Vibraharp) is the book for xylophone / marimba players that parallels the lessons in Stick Control for the Snare Drummer, focusing on attention to control, coordination, flexibility, and improvement of the weaker hand. It provides a detailed and comprehensive group of practice patterns and daily warmup exercises for use by both students and professionals, for "less than the cost of a lesson," as Stone used to say.
