xylophone

McCullough told police: "When I was hitting her it was like someone badly playing the xylophone, it was willy-nilly."

He holds small mallets in his “hands” to play a kind of xylophone called a marimba.

In an effort bristling with cleverness, four master’s degree graduates from the University of Minnesota College of Design built a hut from construction waste that doubled as a xylophone, incorporating a dismantled chain-link fence and sawed-off struts from a metal bed frame.

They distributed xylophone mallets to those waiting in line.

“Let’s work together to keep your account safe and protect you from fraud,” a recorded voice said, over a tinkly melody that sounded like a xylophone.
