What is a timpani?
The Timpani is a set of four or five pitched kettle drums that play in orchestras, symphonies, and even marching bands. Percussionists playing Timpani control the pitch of the drums with a foot pedal located at the bottom of each.

They are played by striking the head with a specialized drum stick called a timpani stick or timpani mallet. Timpani evolved from military drums to become a staple of the classical orchestra by the last third of the 18th century.
What is a Schnellar timpani?
In the early 20th century, Hans Schnellar, the timpanist of the Vienna Philharmonic, developed a tuning mechanism in which the bowl is moved via a handle that connects to the base and the head remains stationary. These instruments are referred to as Viennese timpani ( Wiener Pauken) or Schnellar timpani.
What are the different grips in playing the timpani?
The two most common grips in playing the timpani are the German and French grips. In the German grip, the palm of the hand is approximately parallel with the drum head and the thumb should be on the side of the stick.
