Has anyone played the Orchestral version of the David Concertina for Trombone ? What is its difficulty? YouTube clips sound as though it is about a grade IV for the orchestra. Is that accurate?

Thanks for your help.

I've never been involved in a full orchestra performance of this but have played it on piano many times for trombone soloists. It doesn't seem like it would be difficult...perhaps a bit challenging for the strings just because of the flat key centers and the "note-iness."

This was composed in 1836, so I highly doubt there is a tuba part...is that what you were interested about?

Thanks for the response, Todd. I was aware of the composition's date so I did not expect to find a tuba part (an ophicleide part maybe but not tuba). I am asking because one of our orchestras is about to schedule this and the conductor was unsure about the difficulty for the orchestra. It does not sound difficult but I could not find a source for a study score so I thought I would ask, in here, about its difficulty.
