Forcrrord
The following solos were written as a companion to FundamentøI Method
for Timpani with the developing timpanist in mind, but can act as
supplementary material to the simultaneous shrdy of any method book.

The intent of these pieces is to provide musical material that will give the
progressing student a chance to put to practical use his or her developing
technical skills, as well as demand a variety of musical styles and
contexts" In addition, any of the following solos may be used as either
contest or iury pieces.

Finally, it is the author's hope that these pieces witt be fun for the
students to play.
