There's something about this I like. Good composition. The colours/lighting isn't the best. But you've captured it well.

Feels a bit like a snapshot, not at all helped by his background. More dof is needed for his instrument. Perhaps some motion blur could have helped this seem more dynamic, or at least get him with the sticks in the air. He looks half asleep here.

What a face....what a face, nice xylophone....

Perhaps a shift in the angle to include the arm and block out the angled column...
