It is broken into three main parts. The first section contains a variety of exercises and studies that examine numerous musical and technical challenges. Included in the section are exercises for rolls, double stops, scales (in all major and minor keys), chords (in all major and minor keys), arpeggios, octaves and various rhythms and tempi. The second section is a group of 39 etudes meant to develop the skills learned in the first section. Many of these etudes are very challenging, and require a great deal of facility to correctly navigate. The final section of the book includes solos and excerpts from the orchestral repertoire. Some of the pieces given are excerpts from orchestral pieces, and other are transcriptions from another instrument&#8217;s repertoire. \u00a0Included in this section are the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bach \u2013 Violin Concerto in A minor<\/li>\n<li>Paganini \u2013 Violin Concerto<\/li>\n<li>Mozart \u2013 Finale of Act I from Magic Flute (Bells)<\/li>\n<li>Liszt \u2013 Hungarian Rhapsody #2 (Bells)<\/li>\n<li>Wagner \u2013 Waldweben from Siegfried (Bells)<\/li>\n<li>Wagner \u2013 Siegfried\u2019s Rhine Journey from Gotterdammerung (Bells)<\/li>\n<li>Ravel \u2013 Mother Goose Suite (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Wolf-Ferrari \u2013 Dance of the \u00a0Camorrists (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Korngold \u2013 Much Ado About Nothing (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Stravinsky \u2013 Petrouchka (Bells and Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Stravinsky \u2013 Les Noces (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Prokofiev \u2013 Scythian Suite (Bells and Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Prokofiev \u2013 Alexander Nevsky (Bells and Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Kabalevaky \u2013 Colas Breugnon Overture (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Shostakovich \u2013 Polka from Golden Age Ballet (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Shostakovich \u2013 Symphony #5 (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Shostakovich \u2013 Symphony #6 (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Shostakovich \u2013 Symphony #7 (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Khatchaturian \u2013 Gayne Ballet (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Sowerby \u2013 Irish Washerwoman (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Grainger \u2013 Shepherd\u2019s Hey (Bells and Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Grainger \u2013 Spoon River (Marimba, Bells and Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Gershwin \u2013 Porgy and Bess (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Kleinsinger \u2013 Tubby the Tuba (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Keinsinger \u2013 Peewee the Piccolo (Bells and Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Chopin-Levin \u2013 Prelude in G Major (Marimba or Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Gould \u2013 Guaracha (Xylo)<\/li>\n<li>Gould \u2013 Harvest (Vibes)<\/li>\n<li>Bennett \u2013 Drum Tune #7 (Vibes)<\/li>\n<li>Delibes \u2013 Bell Song from Lakme (Bells)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Annotated by: Greg Simonds<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: Modern School for Xylophone, Marimba and Vibraphone Author: Morris Goldenberg Description: This book is meant as an all-encompassing method in the study of mallet percussion.
