Hi,
Right now I have the Kopprasch, Tyrell, and also the Bordogni on my stand. I have been looking into the Beelzebub, how do you like it?

Personally, I liked the Scouts' version of "Malaguena" from 1988, but that's just me...

On my stand are solo parts to "Stella By Starlight" and "I Wish You Love" along with a rough draft of a marching band arrangement of the opening music from the videogame "Medal Of Honor" and a remote control for the TV set. There's also two dead AA batteries from the metronome that were to be replaced about three years ago. Oops.

Actually, I think the batteries in the TV remote died, and the metronome batteries went into the remote. Priorities, people!

That's spectacular! The TV is probably in another room, though, right?

I've got all of the Alec Wilder Suites that were written for Harvey Phillips and dedicated to his family. These are some forgotten gems indeed.

Dust. Can't wait until school starts and those summer repairs are done.

Sean, I've heard of those two pieces you named above. By the way, who were the composers and from which publishers are they available? I am especially interested in the TV remote piece.

Let's have a look:

Bach Sonata's and Partita's
Schubert: Quintet
Bruch: Scottish Fantasy
Various Orchestral Things, Schuman 2nd, Don Juan

And I'm sorry to say that I can't find MY stand, because someone in OUR house took it because they left THEIR stand in the car they traded in last week and is waiting for me to go get it.

Always enjoy these posts. Right now I have:

Low Legato Studies Volume 1 by Jacobs
Arban Scale for Tuba by Jacobs

20 Year old xerox copy of warm up routine from "Doc" Streater at IWU.

Air and Bourree by Bach
Ava Maria
Pic Solo from Stars and Stripes (our Community Band director is talking about letting the Tuba section do this as a feature at a future concert).

Copies of my, ten year old, son's begining French Horn music. This gives me the challange of transposing and reading Trebel Clef at same time. As a side note I keep telling my wife I should get an F tuba so it would be easier to do duets with my horn playing son, so far no dice.

Thanks

I was going to tease you about having to practice waving your arms around until I saw this. Please hang in there through this tough time; those who love you will be so glad you did!

Ramsoe Tuba-Euph Quartet arranged by Gary Buttery.

Believe it or not, the bride and groom requested this piece for their wedding next Saturday! They are both musicians, albeit flute and string players, respectively. They both like the sound of low brass (this is a couple with excellent taste, no doubt). Our quartet sampled a lot of music for them, and they selected the third movement of the Ramsoe for the recessional. Most of their friends in attendance are musicians, so they wanted to pick something off the beaten track; no Wagner or Mendelssohn at this wedding! It will also be interesting playing for a congregation filled with musicians. Scrutiny, scrutiny....

Also on my music stand: Strathcarron from Philip Sparke's Hymn of the Highlands.

Golly, I'm amazed at the size of these music stands!

On my stand right now are only two books: "Pottag/Andraud, "335 Selected Melodious Progressive and Technical Studies for French Horn"--the blue book and the red book.

But, judging from the way I played at BB rehearsal last night, a couple of BB charts will join the horn books this week...

My stand isn't so much for putting the music in front of me as it is a library of music that I own and wish I could play.

Lessee...

In the "Stuff to impress visiting tuba players" category, all the usual suspects: RVW, Broughton, Gregson, etc. My wife retreats to the bedroom and the cat yowls at the bedroom door to be allowed to follow her when I attempt this stuff.

And I have some stuff that I used to be able to play, ranging from Air and Bourree to several of the Don Little arrangements of Marcello.

There are several excerpts: Pictures (but not because of the Bydlo), RVW Second, Torchinsky Prokofiev and Shostokovich books, and so on, including a couple of more interesting band tuba parts.

I think I have the Peters Edition of the Bach Cello Suites on the stand, way at the back, and I pull it out once and a while to remind myself that I'm a tuba player, not a musician.

The music that I'm playing in band at any given time is in the case, along with the tuba.

Ewald quintet; (playing both the tuba and the horn parts along with the Dallas Brass CD, and the tuba part with my quintet, which can hack through it.)

Arnold quintet; the CD is still ahead of me on this one....

Brahms horn trio (playing F tuba on the horn part; I LOVE this piece, and it's a heck of a lot easier to play an octave down on my 182, than it is to play on my horn.)

Too bad all my "advanced" playing opportunites are with CD players...but if I do ever get to play in an advanced group of real live people, maybe I'll be able to hold my end up.

Gorilla Tuba · Post by **Gorilla Tuba** » Mon Aug 02, 2004 8:41 pm

Jan Bach's "rounds and Daces" for quintet.

Also the Arban for multiple tonguing. I have been able to articulate pretty well and had a solid touble tongue, but I never really learned to do it "right." Now that I am teaching, I don't want to pass on my bad habits. Especially my triple tongue... I always used the syllables du-gu-da; du-gu-da. It works, but isn't really a double tongue.

Many solos and etudes have graced my stand of late, but Arbans is the only one lingering. I feel jipped that I didn't use this book in my "formative" years. Better late than never, I guess.

Circus marches for endurance
Various tuba-euphonium quartet arrangements for fun
Arban for my conscience
Brahm's Lullaby for a break
Holst's Second Suite for comic relief
