I highly recommend this book….” Christopher Deane (University of North Texas) “In this book Dr. Alamo presents fun and interesting studies for the aspiring 4 mallet player. A much needed and very refreshing approach!” Thomas Burritt (University of Texas, Austin) “An excellent addition to the four-mallet method repertoire… A valuable resource for the percussionist and non-percussionist educator.” Orlando Cotto (University of Delaware) Dr. Álamo is a member of the Percussive Arts Society, Kappa Kappa Psi and is artist-clinician for Encore Mallets Inc.
