As a timpanist I would like to make some suggests. Keep your parts simple. Don't write for timps like they are trombones with running pitch changes unless you are expecting a top professional will be playing your piece. Expect 80% of orchestras to only have student models and only 4 timps...32, 29, 26 and 23. Using the notes in the middle of the drums range sound better the lowest or highest note of the drum's range. Timps best shine when they are used in supporting role to add color with other instruments. Some composers who wrote great, playable and effective parts are Gershwin, Prokoviev, Hindemith.

But if you play a note in a timpani and your next note in the same timpani needs to be different how do you tune it perfectly without playing it first to check if it's in tune or not? I hope you can understand the question...

Thank you for question! In slow tempo, professional timpanist can play chromatic notes in one drum, using " timpani gauge". In fast tempo it is hard to play in tune!! Also when player moves the pedal fast, from one note to different note, it will sound like "glissando".. So, always before the playing timpanist should map the score in gauge..

Watch Tim genis’s video about timpani tuning if you want an explanation and example. If you don’t want to watch that video, I’ll just say it’s essentially the same way a trombonist would play.

The revelation that timpani writing should not exceed a major 6th is very useful. Thanks!
