xylorimba

The xylorimba (sometimes known as the xylo-marimba or marimba-xylophone) is a pitched percussion musical instrument which is a not a combination of the xylophone and the marimba but a xylophone with an extended range. It consists of a series of wooden bars laid out like a piano keyboard, and it combines the range of the two, usually spanning four octaves from the C one octaves below middle C to the C three octaves above middle C. Its music is written in both the treble and bass clefs. The instrument has been used in a number of 20th century classical works, including Alban Berg's Three Orchestral Pieces (1915, revised 1929), Pierre Boulez' Le marteau sans matre (1955) and works by Olivier Messiaen.
