The xylophone is a musical percussion instrument. It consists of a series of graduated wooden or metal bars. The bars are usually mounted on a frame. The bars touch the frame near their end, at the node.

Xylophones mounted on a frame may have a gourd or tubular resonators suspended under each bar. An alternative is the frame itself. It may form a trough like resonator.

The orchestral xylophone has two rows of bars. They are arranged like piano keys. Tubular resonators are tuned to each bar. The range of the instrument is usually four octaves, starting from middle C.

The orchestral marimba has tubular resonators under the bars. It is pitched an octave lower than the xylophone.

The xylophone appeared in Southeast Asia about the 14th century. It became highly developed through use in the Indonesian gamelan, or percussion orchestra.

The simplest xylophone were a pair of bars that laid across the player's legs. More complex instruments were developed that were mounted on a frame.

The use of the xylophone spread throughout the continent of Africa, possibly by being imported through Madagascar. It became a prominent instrument in African music. It became introduced to Latin America by African slaves. There it became known as the marimba.

The xylophone received its name from the Greek word xylon, meaning "wood", and the word phone, meaning "sound".

The xylophone arrived in Europe around 1500. It became a widely used folk instrument in central Europe. The Polish and Russian performers had popularized the xylophone in Western Europe by the 19th century. It was first used in the orchestra in 1874.

Xylophone notes are the same as Piano notes. On the piano, the top black keys are G-flat, A-flat, B-flat, (the 3 keys closer to each other), and then it goes D-flat and E-flat, (the 2 keys closer to each other). The bottom white keys are A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and then it'll keep going in that order. The C key is always on the bottom left of the D-flat key and the F key is always on the bottom left of the G-flat key.
