As a begginer you might want to look at Rebecca Kite's CD "Prism". I like it for beginners because it has some of the typical pieces that are played early in 4 mallet playing. Such as "Yellow After the Rain," "Mbira Song," "Rain Dance," "Monograph IV," "Frogs," the Musser C Major and some others. It's "fun" music and it's easy to listen to even for a non-Marimba player.
