Re-listening
For nostalgia
A piece I'm learning now reminds me of this one
"Ghost Fleet" by Robert Sheldon

[@Bandit2924]

Excellent piece

[@clustertoo]

Between this and Ride by Samuel R. Hazo, the most fun timpani parts in existence for band music.

[@elishafranklin7863]

I love both of those pieces so much!

[@quinndavis3955]

Yeah we're playing that in my band and our percussionist basically flais his arms around during that part on the timpani

[@khvoegtlin]
