Fred Sietz' book, Modern School of Tympani Playing, originally published in 1912, is again available through VAP Media's Digital Bookshelf.

The Modern School has the subtitle: "a theoretical and practical instruction book for the kettledrums with numerous illustrations and a collection of the most important passages from operas and concert compositions". This book includes an extensive section on the history of timpani along with several illustrations, and other sections on Holding the Drumsticks and Way of Beating, Kettledrum Heads and how to mount them on the Flesh Hoops, Kettledrum Sticks, Position of Tympani, and information on rolls, and muffling. There are also several pages of exercises and over 100 pages of excerpts of orchestral and opera repertoire. In just about every way, this book is the predecessor and model used by Saul Goodman for his outstanding book.

Once purchased, you'll receive an email with a special download code good for three days. Like all of VAP Media's Digital Library offerings, the book was scanned at high resolution, straightened, cleaned up, and passed through state-of-the-art optical character reading software so that the text is searchable!
