Funk No. II (2) for Timpani and Trap Set by Todd Ukena

Funk 2 is two separate compositions (one for timpani and one for drums) that, according to the composer, may be played together as a duet. Craig Zerbe is on timpani and Bill Hayes is on the trap set.

Unlike many other performances, this is not an improvised drum part, this is the original part written by the composer.

Where did you find a copy of both the timpani and drumset sheet music?

@srgpiege Steve Weiss sells both parts. They are sold separately, but they are less than $4 a peice.

Oh, And I liked the camera shots. It's one thing to hear it and whole other thing to see it. Thanks for bringing my compositions alive!!

Great job! These were my compositions. You guys played this clean and tight. One suggestion-add a quarter hi hat beat during the A and B sections. During the A section it creates a nice hi hat open sound. During the B section it makes the upbeats stand out more. REALLY, REALLY NICE!!!!
