What does 撥の音も加えた gliss. mean? (in sheet music)


I am a musician playing the Marimba. Because quite a bit of music for marimba
is written by famous Japanese composers, occasionally I come across some
Japanese text I would like to understand.

In the piece "Two methods of Movement for Marimba", written by Toshimitsu
TANAKA, there is, on the 6th page, a Glissando (moving with the sticks along
all bars) with a star. At the bottom of the page, the star is printed again,
this time with a note in Japanese.

> ★撥の音も加えた _gliss._

I would be very grateful if someone could unveil the meaning of that sentence.




It reads: "[撥]{ばち}の[音]{おと}も[加]{くわ}えた _gliss_ ". This literally means: "The
sound of drumsticks"-too "added to"-gliss, and in translation:

`Glissando complemented by the sound of drumsticks.`

It seems a bit rendundant, knowing that a Marimba would only allow for
discrete glissando.
