Suite for solo timpani. Composed by Christopher D. Walker. Solos: Timpani. Folio. Duration 10'40. Tapspace Publications #TSPCS-24. Published by Tapspace Publications (TA.TSPCS-24).

The Tragedy of a Young Soldier by Christopher D. Walker is a haunting, programmatic work about a young, colonial-period man who is called off to war and subsequently dies on the battlefield. It is written for five timpani and also requires a gong.

The suite is written in three movements: Soldier's Theme, Called to War, and The Aftermath. It requires a mature performer capable of technically demanding pedal work (particularly on the top drum), fast hands, and imagination!

This piece ships as a printed, professionally bound folio with a full-color cover.
