PERFORMANCE

Using mallets

1 Copy the staves in your notebook and write the notes that appear on each xylophone.

Remember that where you place the notes on the stave indicates if a note is played lower or higher.

2 Read, learn and improvise. In step 1, sing each note as you play it.

Play the DO Major Pentatonic Scale using mallets and use alternate hands for each note.

Hold a mallet in each hand; play two notes from the DO Major Scale at the same time.

Hold a mallet in each hand, improvise playing the DO Major Scale alternating mallets for each note.
