 Drum roll - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Due to the instruments' resonance, a fairly open roll is usually used, although the exact rate at which a roll is played depends greatly on the acoustic conditions, the size of the drum, the pitch to which is it tuned and the sticks being used.
However, in some older pieces, as well as some recent timpani music, timpani and keyboard rolls are notated as trills.
In most recent music, all three types of rolls are notated as tremolos, with slashes through the note stem.

The closed (pressed/buzz) roll is often heard in orchestral music (and the circus...."drum roll please!").
There isn't a right or wrong drum roll, it just depends on what sound you want and what the musical setting is. They are different because they have a different sound and use a different technique to make the sound.
The closed roll is sometimes referred to as the "buzz" roll or the "pressed" roll.

 Percussion: Rolling Along
A closed roll generally produces the smoothest long tone, and for this reason is the most common type of drum roll to hear in concert (orchestral) style music.
The closed roll is the most common roll and the roll most people refer to when they speak of a drum roll.
Single stroke rolls are most commonly used on timpani, keyboard mallet percussion instruments and percussion instruments which are difficult to produce a rebound with a stick or mallet.

 Drum-Solo
A good time to travel or turn is during pauses in the music or on drum rolls.
While this is largely subjective, I really think that a drum solo over 5-6 minutes is just too long for you to dance to and for the audience to listen too.
Try to sing the drum solo on your own ("badump-ba-dump-dump, dum da-dump-dump," raising and lowering your voice) and hear the melody in the drums.

If you cannot imagine what an authentic drum roll sounds like, in terms of note duration and velocity (or, loudness), try this: Find a drum roll that you like, as an audio file (wav or mp3 or whatever).
Get an audio editor (such as the free Audacity from sourceforge.net) and look at how the thumps are played.
(This means that if you want to achieve the effect of grabbing the cymbal to mute it, you have to use a volume or expression controller on the entire channel.) What's more, the cymbal will of course continue to sound if you hit a bass or snare drum.

This doesn't take away from the musical originality of other scales (and their characteristic sound), since those rolls allow for the limitations in that specific instrument, and their musicians considered what would otherwise become a problem by arranging their music accordingly.
Sometimes, you want the tempo maintained on the snare while it is rolling.
A drum that's beaten without expression sounds basically like a "war in a toy store." There is no particular musical value, except occasional punctuation, so that's how most of them play -- so that they don't drive you out of the room.

Many people also use two different pitches, say a B and a C for a rolling B. I avoid this because it sounds like an out-of-tune timpani to me. I also use a sustain pedal (yes, as is used for piano parts) to help achieve a more realistic sound.
Depending on your sound card, one single note can play the whole roll.
Where there is a roll followed by a rest, or at the end of a piece, you may also have to replace the repeated notes with one or more rests so that the timp.
