Do euphers play

Carl Maria von Weber Andante e Rondo ungarese, Op. 35 ?

It was written for viola, but Weber himself wrote a version for bassoon and orchestra, which I happened to hear on Danish classical radio. As far as I can hear it is within the range of the euphonium. The rondo has very fast triple tonguing work.

No, but if you hum a few bars, we can fake it. :tuba:

There is a mean Danish version of that one, but the wheelchair ladies’ version isn’t bad either.

Triple tonguing and humming at the same time isn’t too easy, but I have asked my library to get me the music.

Yes indeed, a wonderful piece I've played out a few times from the original bassoon copy edited by Simon Kovar (IMC1467).

It's also available with brass band accomp (scored a tone lower) and piano too by Tormod Flaten;
