But how's do you connected too Germany?

[@berta.berlin]

They performed in Berlin, that connection is enough. ❤️

[@marimbadearco]

wonderful. It's a marimba, as keys are made of wood, not metal.

[@berta.berlin]

Not really as "xylo" is the greek word for wood and a xylophone therefore is made out of wood. Metallophone, glockenspiel or vibraphone are made out of metal. We are glad that you like the video!!

[@marimbadearco]

​@@berta.berlin Thanks, good comment, you're correct, I was going common usage. Almost always in the English-speaking world, however incorrectly, people reserve marimba for wooden keys and xylophone for metal keys. I was a music professor and that's the standard usage -- again even if it's historically inaccurate. As a random ex. I just grabbed, here's a sentence from the Wikipedia entry on "Marching band": ....Marching versions of the glockenspiel (bells), xylophone, and marimba are also rarely used by some ensembles. .... The Greek relation to wood might have become abandoned because throughout Latin America the African-introduced instrument is always called marimba: "Marimba is a compound word, that combines two words from the Bantu languages in Africa: 'ma', meaning 'many', and 'rimba', meaning 'single bar xylophone'." Wood is not in the name's history but all of the African and African diaspora xylophones/marimbas are in fact with wooden keys, so maybe that association won out over time and left people thinking of metal keyed instruments as "that other name", xylophone. Maybe metal key xylophones, or all types, need to insist on being called, as you point out, metallophone (from Greek métallon)! And they can then be broken down into vibraphone etc. after that! 🙂 I love your statement of purpose: "great diverse musical content has the power to make each life richer and happier, and our society stronger and more tolerant. "
