Royalty Free Timpani Music

Dramatic news headline music. Slightly intense, with an urgent rhythmic pace, it blends the modern digital world of busy synth themes with the classic professional and serious influences of the epic orchestra to prepare you for the ongoing journalistic values of the day.

Cinematically epic track with electro and orchestral elements enveloping a soft, sweeping voice of an angel. The two contrast nicely, giving a soft, comforting ambience over a more industrial, dramatic background of string ostinatos and majestic brass mixed with synth pulses and drones. The overall effect? A heroic, atmospheric piece that has a steady flow and energy, basking in glory and hope with a slight tinge of tension and suspense.

Spiritual, religious and inspirational christian music with a dramatic climax. Hallelujah, darkness becomes light.

Powerful action hybrid track, featuring orchestral, synth and rock elements. Building on a chaotic, percussive start with string shorts and synth motifs, the main themes start to develop and take shape as electric guitar and brass figure more prominently, all leading towards the final hard rock section, with a driving drum beat, timpani hits, chugging orchestration and distorted guitar. Full of intensity and drama with a cinematic sheen.

An epic orchestral track with increasing intensity brass horns and powerful, heart-pounding percussion

Magical orchestral track with a sense of adventure. A gentle, lilting start from the cor anglais grows into a more epic string theme, supported by brass and woodwinds until it finally breaks into the main motif - triumphant, romantic, grand and uplifting. A good mixture of string and woodwind shorts with sweeping string longs, and changes of pace and intensity help to keep the variety high throughout. Moods come and go, instruments fade in and out, but the winter romance is ever present.

An uplifting, powerful cinematic piano solo with an orchestral string ensemble build-up

Light symphonic track reminiscent of fantasy quests and epic adventures. Sweeping strings, light woodwinds and glistening harp all play their part over a softly bouncing bed of string shorts, tremolos and rich brass passages. Great for any light-hearted and positive situation needing an uplifting and magical feel.

If I say 'pirates' and you think 'Caribbean', then we both know where this is heading. With more than a passing reference to a certain well-known theme, it's every bit as swashbuckling, unleashing the full power of a cinematic orchestra and its percussive ensemble. Having said that, it does have slightly less seafaring tendencies and could easily lend itself to many other action settings from thrillers to adventure scenes, given its generally sterner feel. Epic stuff.

A fun orchestral track for the Christmas period. Striking a triumphant mood, it remains light through the instrumentation, using glockenspiel as the lead melody maker supported by string shorts. Not to say it can't generate a level of epic befitting the holidays though - marching snare drum and faster string ostinato drive the piece forward, harp glissandi add fantasy elements, and a choir backing lifts the whole piece to a wholesome and fulfilling finale. Playful and festive.

Tense orchestral track. Evoking dark satanic ceremonies and gothic energy through heavy use of the chanting choir, and destabilising the listener with uneven time signatures, it's a piece that leaves no doubt about its sinister intentions. Sharp, jagged strings, punctuated brass and tribal percussion contribute to the mood from the start, never letting up on the energy and intensity throughout. Unsettling and soaked in desperate, impending damnation.

Classic Orchestral music describing a positive and family-friendly atmosphere

Beautifully inspirational track full of cinematic drama. A simple start of broken piano chords under string harmonics tells us this is no action epic, rather a brooding slab of minimalist intensity designed to evoke a sincere and heartfelt reaction. Rich strings led by a pleading cello line support the solid piano as the uplifting theme expands and contracts, returning to it's original peaceful state. A slow burner in the best possible way.

Rise to all challenges, conquer all weaknesses, defy the odds - this is the story of heroic ambition and the power to achieve. How best to get that sound? String ostinatos and an army of French horns of course. And with a little help from the percussion section and the rest of the orchestra, some subtle sound design features and an uplifting chord progression, you have yourself the most awe-inspiring, motivational soundtrack you could ask for. Suitably heroic, majestic and just plain epic.

Uplifting and powerful instrumental track with a long dynamic build-up

An epic corporate motivational track featuring orchestral strings, soaring post-rock guitar and synths and gentle piano lines

Heroic cinematic track based around animated string ostinatos. Mid paced for a sense of majesty and glory, it has a strong sense of the epic, with sweeping brass lines and booming percussion being driven by the ever pushing strings and taikos. Uplifting, inspiring and powerful, it shines a beacon of light into a tension filled arena.

An uplifting and positive orchestral rock track, featuring piano, guitars, glockenspiel and powerful string parts.

Inspirational theme with a full cinematic hit. Starting with an Aboriginal flavour for a sense of vast, faraway lands, it's soon transformed into an epic orchestral piece, full of drama and tension through percussive hits, brass swells and string ostinato. Grand and majestic with an adventurous, action filled undertone, it also hits the inspirational and awesome buttons.

Mystical, orchestral epic, with an ethereal quality. Soothing choir and lush strings and pads start us off, with rich brass swelling to a gently pulsing section of strings and woodwinds as it builds to a more epic finale of fanfare brass and timpani rolls. No stand out melodies, but an overall feel of wonder and enlightenment in a gentle and majestic setting.
