Spinning Yarns by Matthew Weyer brings you six four-mallet marimba etudes, written to be short and lyrical so students have a fun time while learning them and don't become frustrated from never being able to get to the end.
Each one of these solos focuses on a particular key and technical issue that pops up when playing marimba. Lesson teachers should definitely take a look at what this book has to offer - if only so you don't have to listen to the same solo for the 3,000th time.
