Dale Anderson has arranged these 24 studies in chromatic sequence, one major and one minor study in each key, in order to give the player reading exercises in all keys. These studies have been written within a three-octave F to F range, making them playable on xylophone, marimba, or vibes. The occasional parenthesized notes are optional notes for the lowest register of the four-octave marimba.
