Symphonic repertoire for timpani, The 4 symphonies of Schumann | CARLYSS G.
Symphonic repertoire for timpani, The 4 symphonies of Schumann is a collection of orchestral excerpts for timpani, by Gerald CARLYSS. A title from the orchestral repertoire.
A former timpanist of the Philadelphia Orchestra and professor of music at Indiana University, Gerald Carlyss examines the timpani parts of Schumann's four symphonies. His explanations draw on countless performances under many of the world's finest conductors. Each symphony is given a performance analysis, followed by the original part and a revised part. Presenting both allows Schumann's own writing to be compared with present-day practice, a recurring question in this repertoire.
Each analysis is followed by the parts, ready to practise and to perform.
A preparation tool for orchestral auditions and competitions.
In English, 64 pages.
