So a fan of the show submitted an idea for the last exercise in episode 14! .
Hi,
I am following what you do from France and in this last episode you look like a chicken when you do this warming up session that closes your video–look at what your arms are doing 
So I suggest a name for the score: “La poule se chauffe” which can be roughly translated by the chicken is warming up.
I am starting playing with 4 mallets and it is **** difficult.
Thank you for all the material you put on-line. I would appreciate something about the mallets, as there are so many different ones, that sound so differently, and it is like a maze. Just listening to all the mallets you have is probably interesting. Why do you pick this one or that one? Do people play the bars with anything else than the mallets? The shaft?
Again, thank you for all this. It is enlightening, very pedagogical, clear as well as fun.
Best,
L.
Looking back on the video, it does look almost as if I’m doing the chicken dance! Gotta love chord inversions! So not only did my exercise get a cool name, but I also have an episode idea! I get about 2 emails a week asking for mallet advise, so this weekend I’m going to do the next episode on Mallet Selection! Thanks Laurent!
