Capture of the U-505 composed by John Willmarth. Timpani Solo. For timpani solo. timpani. Book. Duration 8 minutes, 50 seconds. Published by Innovative Percussion. IP.T-JW-505. Composer's notes. "Capture of the U-505" is a programmatic piece influenced by Wagner's use of Leitmotif. a musical device in which a character, place, or idea is depicted through a musical theme. Throughout the work the top two drums represent the American Naval forces and the bottom drums the German U-boat, the U-505. The piece is comprised of four sections. The U-boat, The Chase, The Battle, and The Capture. The opening reveals the U-boat theme including the characteristic sound of the sonar ping. The one-handed roll technique depicts the rumble of the U-boat engines. The Chase is written in a canonic style in which one hand "chases" the other. The left hand plays the bottom drums in the key of Bb while the right hand plays the top drums in the key of F. Eventually an ostinato is unveiled which rhythmically spells out the distress signal "S.O.S." in Morse code. In The Battle, small cloth bags filled with coins are placed in the center of the drumhead producing an explosion sound when the head is struck. At "agitato" the performer should improvise for 10-20 seconds using, but not limited to, the given motives in a fragmented rhythmic style. devoid of an easily discernable pulse center. The texture of the improvisation should become increasingly dense throughout. The drums can be tuned to any pitch throughout this section. based on where the performer chooses to end the glissando effects. but should end with the drums in mid-range. A 4-line staff is also used to represent the four drums rather that delineate a specific pitch set. This section should depict the chaos, aggression, and ferocity of battle. An elongated glissando up the drums is used to portray the U-boat surfacing thus ending the battle. this phrase should be performed on the 32" and 29" drums. The Capture brings some of the beginning themes full circle. This time, however, the rumble of the engines is on the high drums representing the American convoy. The drums are tuned to a major tonality depicting a resolution of the conflict throughout. The sonar ping is no longer present but the motive carries on as the sub is towed away. In 1941, the United States entered World War II in response to Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. At this point in the war, the Germans had already unleashed their Blitzkrieg attack on London and, along with Japan and Italy, formed the Axis powers. Because shipping was the primary means of delivering supplies to Great Britain and Africa, the German submarine or U-boat became a major factor in what has come to be known as the Battle of the Atlantic. German U-boats were sinking merchant ships at an alarming rate. In fact the U-boats effect on the war was so profound that in a speech British Prime Minister Winston Churchill stated, "The only thing that ever really frightened me during the war was the U-boat peril. " In response to this threat, the United States formed hunter-killer task groups designed to seek out and destroy enemy subs. Captain Daniel Gallery led the group known as the 22.3 which was comprised of five destroyer escorts. USS Chatelain, USS Jenks, USS Flaherty, USS Pillsbury, USS Pope, and the aircraft carrier the USS Guadalcanal. Through intercepted radio transmissions the 22.3 was able to ascertain the general location of a U-boat off the coast of West Africa. After 2 weeks of searching unsuccessfully, the 22.3 broke off the hunt. On June 4th, 1944, as they headed towards Casablanca to refuel, the USS Chatelain suddenly made sonar contact with the U-505 less than 800 yards away. The American destroyer fired on the sub as it took evasive action. Wildcat fighters from the Guadalcanal marked the position of the U-505 by firing their machine guns into the water. The Chatelain was able to severely damage the U-505 using depth charges, forcing her to surface. It was a short but fierce battle in which the U-505 was only able to launch one torpedo. Once the sub surfaced, the U.S. convoy surrounded the sub and covered her in artillery fire. The crew abandoned ship and 58 German sailors were captured with only one casualty. Although the Germans took measures to scuttle the ship, an American salvage crew managed to board the boat, remove classified materials, and save the U-505 from sinking. The boat was secretly towed over 2,500 miles to a U.S. base at Bermuda in order to study German U-boat technology. Because of the bravery, courage, and daring of Commander Gallery and his team, the U.S. Navy was able to capture an enemy vessel at sea for the first time since the War of 1812. Admiral Royal E. Ingersoll, Commander in Chief, U.S. Atlantic Fleet, released the following statement. "The Task Group's brilliant achievement in disabling, capturing, and towing to a United States base a modern enemy man-ofwar taken in combat on the high seas is a feat unprecedented in individual and group bravery, execution, and accomplishment in the Naval History of the United States.

Capture of the U-505 composed by John Willmarth. Timpani Solo. Za timpane solo. timpani. Knjiga. Trajanje 8 minut, 50 sekund. Izdala inovativna tolkala. IP.T-JW-505. Pojasnila skladateljevega. "Zajemanje U-505" je programski del vpliva Wagnerjevem uporabo vodilni motiv. glasbena naprava, v kateri je znak, kraj, ali ideja upodobljena skozi glasbeno temo. Celotnem delu na prvih dveh bobnov predstavljajo ameriške mornarice in spodnji bobni nemško podmornico, U-505. Kos je sestavljen iz štirih delov. U-boat, Chase, Battle in Capture. Otvoritev razkriva tema U-boat, vključno z značilnim zvokom sonar ping. Z eno roko roll tehnika prikazuje ropot motorjev z U-boat. Chase je napisan v kanonični slogu, v katerem po eni strani "lovi" druga. Levica ima spodnje bobne na ključ Bb desna pa ima top bobne na ključ F. Sčasoma Ostinato je razkrila, ki ritmično opredeljuje klic v sili "SOS" v Morsejevi kodi. V bitki, so majhne krpo vrečke, napolnjene s kovanci postavi v središče Drumhead proizvaja eksplozijo zvok, ko je glava udari. Na "agitato" bi moral izvajalec improvizirati za 10-20 sekund z, vendar ne omejeno na, danih motivov v razdrobljenem ritmično slogu. brez zlahka opazne impulza center. Tekstura improvizacije morajo postati bolj gosto vsej. Bobni lahko uglašen na vsakem igrišču v tem odseku. na podlagi kjer izvajalec odloči za prenehanje učinkov Glissando. vendar pa bi se moral končati z bobni v srednjem območju. 4-vrstični osebje se uporablja tudi za zastopanje štiri bobne, namesto da razmejitev posebno smola niz. Ta del mora prikazujejo kaos, agresivnost, in divje bitke. Podolgovata glissando up bobnov se uporablja za prikazati prevlek U-boat tako se konča bitko. Ta stavek je treba opraviti na 32 "in 29" bobnov. Capture prinaša nekatere teme, ki se začne cel krog. Tokrat pa je ropot motorjev je na odprtem bobni, ki predstavljajo ameriško navezo. Bobni so uglašeni na glavno tonalitete motivom rešitev konflikta v celotnem. Sonar ping ni več prisotna, vendar motiv opravlja kot se bo odpeljal pajek. Leta 1941 so Združene države Amerike v odgovor na Japonskem presenečenje napad na Pearl Harbor je začel drugi svetovni vojni. Na tej točki v vojno, so Nemci že sprožila svoj blitzkrieg napad na London in skupaj z Japonsko in Italijo, oblikovana silam osi. Ker je bil pomorski promet primarni način zagotavljanja oskrbe v Veliki Britaniji in v Afriki, nemška podmornica ali U-boat je postal pomemben dejavnik, kar je prišel, da je znan kot bitki za Atlantik. Nemški podmornice so potaplja trgovske ladje na alarmantno stopnjo. V resnici je bil podmornice vpliv na vojno tako globok, da je v svojem govoru izjavil britanski premier Winston Churchill, "Edina stvar, ki me je kdaj res prestrašeni v času vojne je bila nevarnost preti U-boat. "V odgovor na to grožnjo, Združene države oblikujejo skupine lovec-morilec nalogo, namenjene poiskati in uničiti sovražne podmornice. Captain Daniel Galerija vodil skupino, znano kot 22,3, ki je bil sestavljen iz petih Destroyer spremljevalcev. USS Chatelainu, USS Jenks, USS Flaherty, USS Pillsbury, USS Pope in letalonosilke USS Guadalcanal. Skozi prestrežene radijske prenose mogel ugotoviti splošno lokacijo podmornice ob obali Zahodne Afrike 22.3. Po 2 tednih iskanje neuspešno, 22,3 prekinila lov. Na 4 junij 1944, saj vodi k Casablanca točenja goriva, USS Chatelainu nenadoma stopil v stik sonar z U-505 manj kot 800 metrov stran. Ameriški rušilec streljali na podmornici, saj je umikanja. Wildcat borci iz Guadalcanal označeni položaj U-505 s streljanjem svoje mitraljezi v vodo. Chatelainu je lahko resno poškoduje U-505, ki uporabljajo pristojbine globine, jo silijo na površje. To je bil kratek, a huda bitka, v kateri je U-505 le mogli začeti en torpedo. Ko bo na gladini, konvoj ameriške obdan podmornico in jo zajeti v topovskim ognjem. Posadka zapuščene ladje in 58 nemških mornarjev je bilo ujetih s samo eno nesrečo. Čeprav so Nemci sprejeli ukrepe za zračno ladjo, ameriški reševanje posadke je uspelo vkrcati na ladjo, odstranite materiali in prihranite U-505 pred potopom. Ladja je bila na skrivaj vleče po 2500 milj do bazo v ZDA na Bermudih, da se prouči nemško tehnologijo U-boat. Zaradi poguma, poguma in drznosti Galerije poveljnik in njegovi ekipi, je US Navy zaznati sovražno plovilo na morju prvič po vojni leta 1812. Admiral Royal E. Ingersoll, vrhovni poveljnik, ameriški atlantski floti, sprosti naslednjo izjavo. "Briljanten dosežek skupine Projektne v onemogočanje, zajemanje in vleko v Združene države Amerike bazo sodobno sovražnik man-ofwar sprejeti v boju na odprtem morju, je dosežek brez primere v individualno in skupinsko pogum, izvedbo in dokončanje v Naval Zgodovina Združene države Amerike.
