Begun-Twenty-one Etudes

Twenty one technically and musically challenging solos for three, four and five drums. Suggestions on interpretation, stick selection and choice of drums are provided by the composer.

"...an important collection written by one of the best performers on timpani today. I think that the most difficult etudes will be of great benefit not only to students, but also to accomplished performers who wish to achieve a complete mastery of their instrument."
