Till Eulenspiegel Horn

[Z-Tuba Dude]

Hey folks,

I am preparing to play Till for an upcoming concert.

I’m just curious for those of you who have played it, what your choice of Horn was. The part that I’m looking at, does say bass tuba, and it does seem to be written with an F in mind.

Just curious about what the thinking is out there!

I played it on a a JBL and PT6 on separate performances. Strauss definitely knew what he was doing when it wrote the part however I think the part works better on the larger horn.
