The Storm

Price range: $8.00 through $9.00

‘The Storm’ is for four timpani and suspended cymbal, which is, at times, placed on one of the timpani. The outer sections are in a driving 5/8, with a slow cadenza-like middle section for contrast. Great contest or audition solo for a developing timpanist!
