Bach's Flute Sonata transcribed for tuba by Wesley Jacobs. This exciting (and difficult) music works well on high (F or Eb) tuba.
Dan Perantoni's great Mahler arrangement. As performed and recorded by Mr. Perantoni.
This is a beautiful solo for the tuba. It uses the upper register of the tuba throughout and therefore it works best on the high (F or Eb) tuba.
Shostakovich Adagio from Limpid Stream arranged and recorded by Roger Bobo and by Carol Jantsch. This beautiful work is best suited for F or Eb Tuba.
A very melodic solo that is easy to perform on the BBb or CC tuba.
The musical style is derived from the 12-tone school. Dr. Rivard makes excellent use of modern brass performance techniques such as singing while playing, improvisation, and full use of the range of the bass trombone.
Composed for and dedicated to Randall Hawes.
