We’ve been making animated timpani videos since 2017, but they’re usually just short, spectacular moments from the repertoire. Why not an entire movement? Including the bars rest?
Beethoven’s timpani writing brought the instrument forward to become a more prominent part of the Orchestra. Ever fancied a go at the timpani? Well now is your chance! Tap along, and let us know how you got on.

This week we performed The Rite of Spring by Stravinsky, and so it was time to remake this classic video from 2018, featuring principal bassoon Jonathan Davies. Have you ever heard this piece live?

That feeling when everything's just falling into place 🤩
(In case you missed it, this is from Sibelius's Finlandia!)
Here are some clues to next week's video - can you guess the piece?
- It's a 'first'
- The composer was 15 when he wrote it
- He premiered it for his sister's birthday in 1824
