Bateria by Darin Kamstra is an interesting work for solo timpani. This piece is inspired by Brazilian samba batucada rhythms, 'call and response' theme found in sambas, surdo and repinique technique, and brush patterns utilized by Brazilian drum set players.
As well as being very unique, this piece is incredibly fun to play and entertaining for the audience to experience.
