Performance Notes
Be sure to dampen each Glockenspiel note in the opening statement immediately after striking it. This should sound sort of like a " steel" clave part. The effect is repeated in bars 37 & 93. The opening Xylophone and Vibraphone parts use the same stikcing pattern. It was conceived as a series of accented right hand notes followed by a double left hand.
