There's an Alec Wilder band piece that calls for anvil.
And of course there's that best known of all anvil parts, the one in
Maxwell's Silver Hammer.--Not soft, of course, but hey...

Maxwell's Silver Hammer? Can you enlighten me as to what that is? Not the

I feel obligated to point to a Beatles novice that, although this song
comes from one of the greatest pop albums of all time (Abbey Road),
this song often shows up on lists as one of the Beatles worst.

There's an Alec Wilder band piece that calls for anvil.
I will check it for dynamics; that will iron out all our problems.
As we all know, Alec was one of the few composers who truly understood
the lyrical potential of the anvil and sought to unlock it.

I wrote a concert band piece that used a Brake Drum, similar to an anvil, at
all dynamic levels. The change in dynamics is achieved mostly by the
striking distance the performer uses. Using different types of mallets may
help as well. It's been performed several times and none of the performing
to get a light, quiet sound.
You can also get them in different sizes, from truck down to subcompact, for
different tones.

To my ear the best anvil-like sound comes from a brake
