is a timpani solo for four drums, which features
subtlety as its focal point. Through the use of quiet dynamics, short

the timpanist is afforded the chance to explore a unique musical
landscape. The primary issues here for the performer involve pedaling,
tone production and an overall awareness of the musical capabilities of
the instrument. advanced high school/college.
