Tuba/Euphonium Quartets

Post by Brassdad »

Been scanning via google on this topic, but the selection seems "restrictive". Last year at the Potomac Music Festival, a middle school quartet played the "Orange Blossom Special"!
My son starts high school next year and they have a lot of options, he thinks he might like to get a Tuba/Euphonium Quartet going, but am wondering were he could go for music outside the norm for some unique pieces.

Surely you must know about the 'Tuba Euphonium Press'. Since it wasn't mentioned yet...

I have just one tuba quartet.

In the Tubateer's Lair.

With spatialization and fixed dynamics creating echo effects.

You can hear it in my web site.

If you like it let me know.

Kind Regards.

Antero.

Greetings,

I know Bryan from Cimarron already chimed in, but I thought I'd pass this along. My group, All the King's Tubas, is in the process of recording a lot of the charts that Bryan has for sale. All the finished recordings to date are on our website http://www.timolt.com/atkt/ plus a number from other publishers and ones that are in the works for publication. Just thought this might help to hear them ahead of time.

Best of luck,

Tim
