Marimba: Brief Description — Vienna Symphonic Library

TOR / Creation & Teaching / Recommended External Content

“The marimba looks almost exactly the same as the xylophone, but is larger, has a lower register (from bass through tenor to alto) and a wider compass. It is a xylophone with resonators – xylo-phon simply means "wood sounder" – pitched an octave deeper.”
