I'm almost done working on this, not doing it for solo's [7th grade] but just practicing.

@phunnyplace

7th grade? damn dude! I played this sophomore year of college .. although I didn't take mallet percussion seriously until i started college when my lessons were nothing but marimba and timpani

[wirgeserkampfsau]

i guess it's too slow...

i'm playin it too but i liky to play it faster and would try to play it with more soft mallets and you have to play it with more passion!! try to feel what this piece wants to say and play it with more expression

you'll see it'll sound much better!

but all in all: good job!

[shadowlorde]

as much as I love this instrument .. i can't play with as much passion on it because i'm a beginner on it . .. working on it though...drum set is my main thing

[phunnyplace]

@shadowlorde Well i started snare last year, and now i'm on four mallet stuff, and doing some of the george hamilton green stuff. Also good job on this.

Tu ne fais pas les nuances ( mezzo forte, mezzo piano .....) but it's good !!!

[DAchris361]

i just started working on this piece. good piece for beginning 4 mallet players

[timetoslowdownisnow]

I think that is awesome and have respect for you!

[ham256]

nice man, im just learning this song

[elkers101]

and you are doing a fine job :) keep up the good work! i for one can only play mallets and pretty much no other percussion.
