I was wondering if anyone knows whether or not there is a book of St. Jacome Celebrated Duets for Trumpet that has been transcribed for tuba?

I love the duet that's in the Solo's for the Tuba Player by Weskeblatt, and I borrowed a trumpet book, but it's taking forever to write them out. I did duet No. 10 tonight and it took me long enough to decide I'd rather not work so hard if I don't have to.

Thanks for the info

can you just learn to read the trumpet music? If you're playing BBb , the fingerings are exactly alike. Other key tubas, you'd need a little bit of thinkin' involved, but it's not terribly tough. Easier than writing them out, unless you really want the transcription practice. And, it opens a whole new world of music for you.

I can read treble clef...

But that doesn't help my students nor the other tubists I choose to read duets with who don't.
