A glockenspiel is a percussion instrument with metal bars arranged in a keyboard-like layout and is usually played with mallets. A xylophone is also a percussion instrument but with wooden bars arranged in a similar layout and played with mallets. The main difference lies in the material of the bars, with glockenspiel bars made of metal and xylophone bars made of wood.

What is the difference between un pitched and pitched in percussion?
Pitched percussion instruments include examples such as the xylophone, or the glockenspiel, both of which of defined note values that you hit. That is, you can play a "C", "D", "E" etc on a glockenspiel or xylophone, but you do not have partiulcar notes for, say, a drumkit or cymbal set. These are unpitched. The quick way to know if an instrument is pitched is to find out if you are hitting a particular note, or set of notes on the instrument. If you are, it's pitched. If not, it's unpitched.

The sound resonates through tubes or a frame underneath the bars, creating the distinctive xylophone sound.
What is the relation between the path difference and phase difference?
