Tuba Solo - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.792697 Composed by Robert Marsteller. 20th Century,Instructional. Individual part. 10 pages. Gordon Cherry #5785165. Published by Gordon Cherry (A0.792697). Robert Marsteller had an illustrious career as a performing artist and a pedagogue, influencing many hundreds of musicians in a major way. His Six Etudes for Tuba (adapted from the tenor trombone version by Gordon Cherry) most likely were written while studying at the Eastman School of Music in the late 1930's, as they are dedicated to his teacher Emory Remington. The etudes are challenging technically, in many keys, written in a wide range and are very satisfying musically to perform. If practiced correctly, these études will surely be of great value to aspiring performers. These etudes are in the F tuba range, but may be performed on the C tuba by using F tuba fingerings Foreword by tuba legend Roger Bobo, former student of Robert Marsteller. This music is also available on iTunes and Kindle as an eBook.

Blostein (A0.921084). These etudes are designed to assist the progressing brass player in the major areas of performance, which traditionally cause issues. Careful attention has been paid to endurance, range, and modern performance requirements. As such, these etudes can be used as a primary teaching source, or as supplemental material. Depending on the intended use of these etudes, they may be learned and performed in chronological order, or in a different order as suggested by a private instructor. Additionally, these etudes are also offered in identical versions for small group instruction purposes, transposed and minimally adjusted as necessary, for tuba, euphonium, trombone, horn and trumpet. Etudes appear in the same order, with the same markings, in each book. Bass trombonists are recommended to use the trombone book for slide technique, and the tuba book for trigger technique.

Tuba Solo - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.917229 Composed by Robert Chamberlin. 20th Century,Contemporary. Individual part. 5 pages. Robert Chamberlin #4622313. Published by Robert Chamberlin (A0.917229). Dr. Gary Bird assembled and edited a volume in 1994 called Program Notes for the Solo Tuba.  In it, he assembled information on what were determined to be the eighty-eight most important works for solo tuba written to that point in time.    Robert Chamberlin’s Elegy (for solo tuba) was very deservedly included in the catalogue of works in that very important assemblage.    Elegy was composed in 1981 for tubist, Jerry Young, and was written in collaboration with both Young and Daniel Perantoni.    It was composed as a response to the assassination of Anwar Sadat, the Egyptian head-of-state who, along with Israeli Premier Menachem Begin and U.S. President Jimmy Carter, forged the peace agreement between those two countries that endures to this day.  Chamberlin said: It is an expression of my sadness and anger that people resort to that particular type of violence for political gain.    Since its premiere performance by Jerry Young at Webster University in 1981, the work has been performed in many venues by many soloists, and it almost always resonates with and touches very diverse audiences.  The work uses a wide variety of expressive techniques, including multiphonics, pitch bends, half-valve technique, glissandi, whispering through the instrument, and the tuba mute.  Perhaps the most striking and emotionally touching effect is that the entire work is played with the bell of the instrument pointed into the open lid of a grand piano with the sustain pedal depressed.    The harmonic and echo-like acoustic effects created are stunning in every performance and venue.    This is an outstanding musical artwork appropriate for any recital, but also very effective in settings where unexpected or tragic loss are being marked.    It speaks to listeners of all backgrounds in a very pronounced way that few works seem to achieve.    While it is in every sense a virtuoso work, it is one that repeatedly rewards both performer and audience.

The metronome is always right is a phrase that every music student has heard at one point or another. However, Meditation for Tuba and Metronome? proves once and for all that the metronome is in fact not always right! As the tubist performs luscious melodies, the metronome he is using starts to malfunction, becoming more and more inconsistent and agitated. This drives the tubist into a frenzy, causing him to finally reset the metronome and start over.....Commissioned and recorded by Tristan Whalen-Hughes on the album Low Orbit. https://www.tristanwhalenhughes.com/recordings.

Tuba Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.876676 Composed by Dosia McKay. Contemporary. Individual part. 5 pages. Gavia Music #6325317. Published by Gavia Music (A0.876676). When I originally spoke with Sande MacMorran, the tuba player for whom I composed the piece, we discussed the technicalities of the instrument; its optimal range, timbre, and articulation. Sande mentioned, in passing, that the rhythm of swing music is a natural fit for the instrument and even sang a few lines to give examples.In the following days, when I began to plan the new composition, I was surprised that the idea of playing ping-pong unexpectedly took hold of my mind and I couldn’t shake it off. At first, it seemed random and unrelated, but then, as I thought about the rhythmic patterns of the game, it all became clear.In ping-pong, the paddle hits the ball and then the ball hits the table in a pattern reminiscent of the rhythm of swing. While beginners tend to play slower, in triplets, the professionals, much faster, with the table note dotted or even double-dotted. Once I realized what my subconscious was trying to tell me, I listened to (not merely watched) several videos of ping-pong matches and discovered a wealth of entertaining rhythmic patterns. Thus the idea for this miniature tuba piece was born.While the tuba may seem a clumsy and awkward instrument, it is actually quite agile and flexible. It can perform many challenging melodic figures or quick jumps between registers, and it can certainly play ping-pong.Total duration: 1’25, suitable for advanced players.

Published by Gordon Cherry (A0.792613). The Slama 66 Etudes have been used for over 90 years as a tried and true method for learning all of the major and minor keys on bass clef instruments. It is an excellent book for honing the basics of technique and gaining knowledge of all the scales. This new improved edition has been carefully edited by Ralph Sauer, eliminating many misprints and articulation conflicts. In the transposing of Professor Slama’s music into the appropriate range for Tuba and Bass Trombone, Mr. Sauer has placed the etudes in a different order from the original Trombone method. However the book starts in C major and methodically proceeds through all of the keys in order to give the performer all of the tools necessary for a thorough technique on his or her instrument. We can recommend this method book for all students of intermediate level and above.

Published by Chris Cooke (A0.865253). 50 Favorite Hymns for Solo and Duet Instruments is a sequel to the first book, Hymns for Solo and Duet Instruments.  This second collection contains my all-time favorites and is written for early-mid-intermediate players.  The hymns are written so that instruments can be mixed and matched for duet or ensemble purposes.  Suitable for worship services, they can be played as offertories or special music selections, or as accompaniment to congregational singing.  Many of the hymns are in the traditional hymnal keys, however, there are some that may be slightly lower to accommodate instrumental ranges.  This tuba book contains only the melody of these hymns. One verse and chorus is written for each and can be repeated as needed.  Hymns with a particular theme or key can be combined for a medley, e.g. I Love to Tell the Story, Oh How I Love Jesus, and He Keeps Me Singing-all are in A-flat.  Melody and duet parts are available for flute/oboe, clarinet/trumpet, alto sax, French horn, and trombone/baritone/bassoon.  When necessary, parts occasionally cross for ease of playing for the bass instruments.  A piano accompaniment book is also available.  These accompaniments are eclectic in style and span the gamut from classical to gospel.  The hymns with their concert keys are:   All Things Bright and Beautiful, alternate tune, C And Can It Be, F Are You Washed in the Blood, G At Calvary, C Be Thou My Vision, E-flat Blessed Be the Name, A-flat Breathe on Me, Breath of God, F Come Christians, Join to Sing, E-flat Faith is the Victory, E-flat Glory to His Name, G Heavenly Sunlight, F He Keeps Me Singing, A-flat I Love to Tell the Story, A-flat Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise, A-flat It Is Mine, B-flat Jesus Saves, F Joy Unspeakable and Full of Glory, A-flat Just As I Am, E-flat Leaning on the Everlasting Arms, A-flat Like a River Glorious, F Love Lifted Me, B-flat My Faith Looks Up to Thee, D Nothing But The Blood, A-flat Oh How I Love Jesus, A-flat On Jordan’s Stormy Banks, E-flat Praise Him!  Praise Him!  F Redeemed, How I Love to Proclaim It!  A-flat Rejoice, The Lord Is King!  C Revive Us Again, F Rock of Ages, B-flat Send the Light, F Since I Have Been Redeemed, F Since Jesus Came into My Heart, F Softly and Tenderly, F Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus, G Standing on the Promises, B-flat Sunshine in my Soul, F The Old Rugged Cross, B-flat There is Power in the Blood, B-flat There Shall Be Showers of Blessing, B-flat The Solid Rock, F This is My Father’s World, E-flat To God Be the Glory, G Trust and Obey, F We Gather Together, B-flat When the Roll is Called Up Yonder, G When We All Get to Heaven, C Wonderful Grace of Jesus, B-flat Wonderful Words of Life, F

Tuba Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.991803 Composed by Jason Allie. Baroque,Classical,Contemporary,World. Individual part. 9 pages. Joaba LLC #3109629. Published by Joaba LLC (A0.991803). DescriptionA delightful, intermediate level work suitable for encouraging students, hobbyists and professionals to improve or show off their performance skills. This lively work engages the audience with a breadth of moods from enlightening to reflective to celebratory. A great recital piece or encore piece to show off the melodiousness, harmoniousness and vibrancy of the tuba. Please send feedback, praises and more to contact@joaba.com.Total Duration: ~8 minutesPerformance Notes Prelude The real art of performing this piece is to master its dynamics. With the long pianissimo to forte crescendo at the introduction, the contrasting forte/mezzo piano sections and brisk, shorter crescendos for the cadences, the tubist must be aware of dynamics at all time and use them wisely.The second aspect to performing this piece is to contrast the 2 eighth note plus quarter note slurs motif against the arpeggiations.  The introduction starts with the slurs and evolves into the arpeggiations by the first forte and the remaining piece explores the contrast between the two.  Performers should feel free to try different dynamics, try different tempos (like zipping through the arpeggiations and slowing for the motif), etc.   The goal is to bring the listener through the pleasantries of introductions to feel fresh and eager for further discourse ahead. March The rewarding challenge in this piece is to bring out the difference between cheery and con brio.  The former being achieved by emphasizing the swaggering, strutting feel of the one-measure-per-beat feel and the latter by emphasizing the intervallic bounciness with the one-two march feel.Note that the motif (with the quarter note morphing into an eighth note) along with simpler arpeggiations are brought to play in a new manner reinforcing the positive mood from the prelude.The goal is to befriend the listener with an engaging, buoyant time. Air The tubist will exercise great breath control and phrasing to achieve a sublime solemnness counterbalancing the prior two movements.The motif now takes center stage headlining the main melodic phrases; however, here it is disjointed and conveys the sighing for the solemnness.After the pleasantness of the march, affableness having garnered friendship, we now open ourselves to share some somber matters and offer consolation.  The intended goal here is to add depth to the relationship by addressing darker aspects in the discourse. Slip-jig Rondo Harking back to the compound meter of the prelude, this dance adventurously wakens the listener from the solemnness of the air asserting a new grandness and gladness.  This is a slip-jig put into the rondo form so celebrate the main dance theme when it comes around and put fire and character into the transitions to make it worthwhile.The motif now jumps into the compound meter’s beat and morphs into three slurred, conjoint eighth notes.  Now this motif enables several affects: exciting dance steps, transitions/modulations and concluding the phrases and the piece itself.The performer should aim to lead and amaze the listener with the waltz-like slip-jig rhythm and astound with the virtuosic transitions as a final send-off.
