Tubby the Tuba

Post by smurphius »

I'm looking for a good piano reduction, voice, and tuba part of Tubby the Tuba. Is there anything out there? I'm looking to have a senior recital to be remembered, and so I figured I might as well throw a little bit of Tubby in there. Thanks!

I'm interested in how a piano reduction of Tubby the Tuba would work (sorry, I can't help you find it though). I mean, it's set up with narration, and certain instruments play based on the story. How would the narration changed if all the other instruments were condensed to a piano?

Don't take me wrong, I'm just interested, but skeptical. I think if there is one, and it sounds good, awesome!

So the pianist reads aloud, too, and makes piano-style instrument noises (think plucking strings, maybe singing into the harp... ). C'mon, use your imagination!

I say do it, espescially if it isn't available!
