Timpani

Hi every one im working on my assignment its about instruments. I play percussion so I got the Timpani. So I'm going to answer so questions about the Timpani. It is part of the percussion family. The parts of the timpani are the head protector, kettle edge, turning bolt, hoop, head, turning indicator, pointer lock nut, pointer adjustment knob, kettle. The timpani was made over 300 years ago. Sadly I couldn’t find who made it or what clef it plays and how to assemble it I also did not find out how to maintain the timpani. The pitch of the drum depends on the size of the drum. to make a sound with this instrument you hit the head of it with a maillot or a drum stick. That is all I know about the timpani bye thanks for.
