Studio Timpani
Long Standing
The timpani, or kettledrum, is the orchestral percussion instrument with the longest tradition. It has been established as a staple of the symphony orchestra since the 17th century. Studio Timpani features two timpani, one of them played with various mallets. The instruments are also included in the Studio Percussion Collection.
