@RandomTask3000 how bizarre! thanks for clarifying
-
@BorisGaquere I've since bought the score. It turns out you were right that the Timpani's notes are written on the down beat. However, the entire ORCHESTRA is playing on the 'ands' so they are syncopated and it is the timpani that is holding down the beat, contrary to what either of us believed.

Ho Ho, good un!

@McDenster indeed, though for me the eargasm comes at 5:19
-
4:10 is heaven sent.
-
@RandomTask3000 Alas, this tiny sliver of hope is my drive to see the score and know once and for all!
-
@BorisGaquere It's possible, however unlikely that an orchestral timpani player would make a mistake that glaring and they would not do another take. It is inconceivable that the same mistake would show up in two different recordings. I'm sorry I don't see how it could be anything other than deliberate.

@RandomTask3000 No, I don't, but I've considered buying it just to check the last page against this recording. I have the score for Tromba/Short Ride, because there is a much greater interest in that stuff for me and in relation to my own writing. Yeah, there's no rule against it, but it just honestly sounds like a mistake on the percussionist's part- to me, and to fellow musicians and composers who I've shown this recording to.

Brilliant piece of music!
I attended the live performance of this piece in March of 2007 at Powell Symphony Hall, the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra performed it. The ending of the 1st movement received ENORMOUS applause after it was finished. FANTASTIC piece.
