Answer:
Answer
The use of the xylophone for orchestral music is quite distinct from the xylophone of Indonesian/African origin. It was a Polish Jew, born in Belorussia who modified the instrument and played it all over Europe. His name was Guzikow and was known to and admired by Mendelsohn. The first orchestral piece was by Saint Saens in the Danse Macabre (or possibly the first score was 'Traumbilder' by Hans Christian Lumbye in 1873 - see Answers.com)
