Re: Beautifying Mallet Percussion
Where are those examples from? Not only is there, in most cases, no reason to distinguish between left and right hand use by stem direction, it actually can turn out to be a hindrance quickly. Any percussionist will tell you that choice over which hands to use should ultimately be left to the perfor...

Re: Crumb's unique rhythms
I've never seen the bracket-like beaming at the end of the second example before. This is a very creative and interesting way to show a syncopation. Is this common now? This is not a syncopation.
