More Black Page

So, now that I can play the drum part for The Black Page, I've decided to tackle the mallet part. The transcription I have is for keyboard melody, so I'll have to compare it to a recording to figure out if there are any quirks I need to be aware of. The score is from an old copy of Keyboard Magazine. I'm playing it on marimba and I would love any tips if anyone's got some.

I thinking of tackling "TBP" over the summer -- I've had the transcription since my days at PIT - but I wasn't ready for it then. Your observations should be a great help!

My goal would be to learn a bar per week on average. Does that sound reasonable??

Thanks!
