Adams Symphonic Timpani has proved its merits in the world of orchestras, conservatorium, bands and schools. The solid construction prevents any problems during transport. The kettle is made from a single sheet of red copper pressed by deep drawn methods. This has the great advantage of maintaining the same thickness throughout the kettle which is extremely important for a good sound. Symphonic Timpani are offered in five bowl diameters, 20"-23"-26"-29"-32".
The impressive sound and quality of our Symphonic Series allow them to excel in a multitude of different playing situations. Whether you're performing in a symphony hall or a high school auditorium, the outstanding sound and unmatched precision of the Symphonic Series will meet and exceed any of your performance demands. Unlike other common molding methods used to create Timpani bowls today, all Adams Symphonic Series Tympani bowls are press formed from a single sheet of supreme quality copper. Seamless and free of any welds or soldering, the bowl is allowed to resonant freely and evenly. This forming method also ensures an even thickness throughout the entire kettle, resulting in the ultimate in both tonal quality and projection. The bowls are suspended by a strong, firm, contoured steel ring to maintain bowl roundness and offer the best protection during transport.
