Equipment: Timpani - Yamaha Balanced Action Drums (5) Mallets - Promark JH2 Jonathan Haas Staccato Planet Damnation is a 10-minute long timpani solo that is accompanied by a midi hybrid orchestral/electronic audio file. This long and challenging solo utilizes five timpani drums, each of which requires performers to change pitches on a frequent basis. The piece features many intricate techniques, including pitch bend through pedal glissandos, frequent pitch changes, mixed meter, and dynamic/articulation contrasts. We hope you enjoy this suspenseful, dramatic, and rhythmic solo.
