| | The Timpani |
 | | The timpani sound involves the vibrational modes of a circular membrane, but the technique of playing specifically excites the preferred modes of the membrane. |  | | It is remarkable that the tones actually produced include the musical intervals of a fifth and octave above the fundamental (P, Q, S). |  | | The fundamental is not generally used in music; it is highly damped and does not produce as pleasing a sound as some other modes. |

| | Timpani FAQ - General Interest Pages |
 | | If, on the other hand, you've heard a concert in which you were struck by the beauty of the timpani sound, then I guarantee you -- he or she was playing in tune. |  | | Timpanists need to be able to tune and re-tune their drums because music is written in various keys. |  | | Sometimes a composer writes a musical passage requiring a sound that is much less resonant than the timpani can possibly produce under normal playing conditions. |
