	=== Review ===		=== Review ===
			This is a very interesting collection of five timpani solos written by composers from different countries. Each solo is written for four drums, and each offers unique techniques and musical challenges. "Grand Duchy," by John Beck, presents the regal march or pageant style associated with a Royal Court. There are no tuning changes, but challenges include counter-rhythms between each hand and one rhythmic modulation. "Paiffenitza," by Boris Dinev, employs many ostinato patterns and a jazz style cowbell rhythm played on the bowl of the high timpani. Unique challenges include playing a steady pattern of sixteenths while changing tuning, playing a pattern with the left hand while playing double stops with marimba stops in the right, and performing rhythms on the timpani while whistling a melody. "La Valse," by Siegfried Fink, starts with a 6/8 scherzo, has a middle section in 7/8, and closes in 6/8. Major challenges feature interaction or counterpoint between the hands, and rhythm patterns scored over beat patterns, (5 against 4, and 4 against 3.) "Rainy Day," by Jean Geoffroy, starts at a slow pace (MM = 45), after which the composer takes us through melodic pedal changes, changing meters, and performing on the middle and normal playing areas of the drums. He also calls for normal and dead strokes. The solo gradually moves forward in energy and tempo, ending with an exciting finale at MM = 140. "Japauken," by Tomoyuki Okada, is a three-movement set of three dances. The first is for two drums tuned to octave F's. The jerky rhythms are amplified by contrasting the normal drum sound with playing on the frame of the drum during a portion of the solo. The second movement uses an Eastern modal melody, followed by the tune stretched over a continuous ostinato pedal. This returns to the opening theme to close the movement. The solo closes with a rapid, forceful dance. It is interesting to note that each solo somewhat takes on the musical style or idioms of the composer's country, thus making this a true international collection. These five contrasting solos can be performed individually or as a medley. - George Frock, June 2003<ref>http://www.pas.org/resources/research/ResearchCompos.aspx</ref>
