What are some good tuba excerpts available on IMSLP?
I've been looking through the database recently and have played through some Wagner overtures. The amount of scores on there is a bit overwhelming and I want to know if anybody here knows of some really good pieces. Thanks.

what's a good excerpt? Someone told me the one's you do not like or enjoy are the one's you need to work on.

I meant something that is fairly exciting and challenging to play. (not whole notes, pretty much)

I don't have any excerpts I should be working on , just want something to practice for a break from the usual 4 or 5 concertos I play through daily.Ben wrote:what's a good excerpt? Someone told me the one's you do not like or enjoy are the one's you need to work on.

Many of these are on IMSLP, many are more substantial than whole notes. It is a good place to start.

And from 2.35 you may experience brass bass intellectualism when it gets really profound:
