Mallet Percussion Workout
A Methods Companion for All: Beginners Through Professionals
Code No. 98-0578126531

Anyone from beginner to professional, who wants to play mallet instruments with ease, dexterity, and accuracy.
This book fills a gap in mallet method books - learning sequences to build confidence and ability in sight-reading; developing smooth, even rolls; becoming more ambidextrous; and getting chops together all over the instrument.
There’s even a section for classical players that will help with jazz improvisation down the road.

Kristen Shiner McGuire has created for mallet players what Stick Control is for drummers - an essential companion workout you won’t want to miss.
