Also,

     CMP is proud to announce the establishment of The Mallet Heritage Archive, an interactive sheet music library whose purpose is to protect and, hopefully, make available the lost repertoire of American xylophone, vibraphone, and marimba music.

     On the Articles page, I've posted up a new essay, The Mallet Heritage Archive: Sound Made Visible which explains how the MHA came to be.

     On The CD Review page, you'll find my review of a really fine new DVD/book set:
El Lenguaje del Tambor and Batá Rhythms from Matanzas, Cuba from Kabiosile.

     Steve Weiss Music is now distributing our Marimba music, Drum Set and Latin Percussion books, and Recordings. Just go to their web site and type "Skoog" into the search field and you will be able to purchase our products with a credit card.
