"David Hext has once again given us some
invaluable additions to the examination repertoire, and both he
and the London College of Music deserve our support for their
initiative. I also feel that his initiative could have
far-reaching effects, playing a definitive role in the development
of mallet percussion in this country, and as such it cannot be
ignored."
