Averticals 4 Keyboard Exercise: Editable Sibelius File

Averticals 4 is a 4-mallet keyboard exercise written in 4/4 time, focused on building control through double vertical strokes and shifting intervals.

This editable Sibelius file is identical to the free PDF—but gives you the flexibility to modify chord groupings, extend reps, or tailor the spacing and pacing to fit your ensemble’s needs.

Perfect for educators designing a custom 4-mallet curriculum or expanding on Averticals 7/6.

What’s included:

  • Editable Sibelius (.sib) file
  • 1-page exercise written in 4/4 time
  • Designed for marimba or vibraphone (adaptable to other mallet instruments)
  • Focuses on double vertical stroke control and spatial accuracy

Why educators love it:

  • Fully customizable to meet student needs
  • Reinforces clean motion and interval awareness
  • Pairs well with Averticals 7/6 for even/odd meter contrast
