Excellent! I particularly liked the 5 coins approach. I also thought measures 2-9 grooved very well when you played them.
Torrin, I really like your idea about telling more about ourselves. I will try to introduce myself a little more in my next video, and I would like to hear more about everyone else too.

Hey! This is very cool I like the many varieties and approaches we are getting. Things I would never even think of.
There are two main points you made that I thought were so interesting. Your decision to use a -different- mallet for early stages of practice is a really cool idea especially with peices like this where the end result will probably be using softer mallets, developing that clarity and not "hiding" behind your mallets is important.
I also like that you mentioned a metronome, that is of course an integral part of what we do. I really like the idea of using the metronome on the offbeat, that is so cool and would definitely give you a much better control over the tempo. I look forward to trying this when I practice in the future.
My only complaint is that you should introduce yourself more! Where did you study, what do you perform, what gigs have you played, what pieces have you learned recently? I just like to know more about the people I work with, and now this extends to my online community.
Maybe we should all include our musical resumes with our next tapes or something.
Overall, this was very enjoyabe.
Yours in performing,
Torrin Rosegold
