Although in C major, the song’s melody is characterized by many accidental notes, which make the piece a little more difficult to memorize on the glockenspiel / xylophone. As you will see in the color map below, all the notes of C major are used plus three of the upper row of the instrument: C#, F# and G#. On the first page of the score you’ll find the first theme of the song, while on the second one you’ll find the chorus.

Watch the video a couple of times and study each part at your own pace until you get the hang of it. Remember to use both mallets as much as you can. For this purpose avoid using only the hand that is more convenient for you (e.g. the right one if you’re right-handed) as this an important basic technique.
