Well done. Found it by accident, actually. Cool of you to film the actual performance too. I performed this as a single timpanist with a local orchestra several years ago. I used 5 timpani and transcribed both parts together with tuning markings and all. Added quite a bit of challenge playing the faster sections. I ended up using 4 mallets burton grip style... was not the greatest solution.

Above Alaska iiii

Burton Grip on Tympani, love it!

[@johnedreslin]

Some of the hardest part of percussion playing is counting all those rests and knowing when to come in.

[@galihkarna7412]

wow... AWESOME first time i see 2 timpanis on one performance :o

[@rmpercussion]

Galih Karna Thanks so much!! :) Yeah it was a fun performance!!

[@GolfBaller]

It's an incredibly demanding composition and it requires an abnormally large orchestra. It's "The Planets" after all! 😅

[@indigodragon0613]

The timpani is one of my favorite instruments to watch at a performance. I have no idea why. Lol.

[@piplupfan71]

Such a wonderful sound...

[@davidsmolenski9796]

I’m doing this piece with my local orchestra at the end of this month. Timpani 2. My favorite part of the whole suite is the last phrase of this piece.

[@drummingblind]

Lolz missed crash @ 5:30 ....dude must've been lost haha

[@ssokol3785]

F he was about to crash and looked and the conductor confused

[@maxwellhanks4751]

Timpani 2 for planets suite, loving it

[@donaldinglese1243]

Just recently played this with my local youth orchestra, but the director was stubborn and decided to cut the 2nd timpani part. I was upset to say the least

[@donaldinglese1243]

TARDIS Maker I know, it wasn't fun, I ended up playing cymbals. The problem could've easily been fixed if he'd be willing to have someone Haul two timpani too and from rehearsal.

[@ZBdrumschool]

@@donaldinglese1243 what timpani sizes do players need? Thanks!

[@Betofrota.]

o timpanista que esta com tres timpanos, no caso o timpanista 2, fez uma otima escolha de baquetas

[@GreenJetsam]

Brilliant!!

[@rmpercussion]

Thanks so much Steffan!

[@GreenJetsam]

+Ryan McCausland what camera do you use and how do you mount it?

[@rmpercussion]

Hey Steffan. The camera is a GoPro Hero 4 Silver. I just clipped it to music stand and set it behind us haha

[@hinkemiki]

The second timpani has 32 29 and 26 sizes? Where is he putting the D?

[@dareboiman1020]

Pretty sure it'd been on the 26. It's typical range is Bb - F

[@kevinnguyen552]

why are the trumpets messing up in this video?

[@rmpercussion]

🤷‍♂️

[@brandonyaezenko4614]

I did this with only 4....I knew how to tune whilst during the song...in HIGH SCHOOL

[@zach237]

I sincerely doubt you did it without having extra noise from changing the pitch on the drum and glissandoing into multiple notes
