That's the one you want....

Typically Robert King arrangements were not done with tuba in mind.....obstensibly a 6th part, most tuba players play the baritone part when playing in a quintet setting.

The Nagel version is pretty awesome....the Canadian Brass version isn't bad either, but in the key of d minor....a step up for some reason...kinda weird....But the CB version includes Contrapunctus I, VII, and IX....

Happy Hunting....

Not sure if there is a 9 by Nagel.

On my site, you will find a Frackenpohl, Foote and Aardworks Press piece. I am offering free shipping for a few more days.


I believe the Robert King version was done for 4tet with the Tuba doubling the Trombone and octave below.

Will check if it's Nagel....but there definitely is a NYBQ arrangement...I'm playing it in quintet now.

It's a sound arrangement. I'll make sure to post publisher, etc. sometime later today.

I believe the old NYBQ recordings used the Rober King arrangement. This was originally written for Sextette with the tuba doubling 60% of the euphonium part an octave lower.

This is what they did on most of their Baroque and Renaissance recordings.

Harvey played the euphonium part. He still sounds terrific!

When I played that arrangement under Mr. Nagle's instruction he suggested using a pedal C on the last note. Since then I have played both the Cm and Dm arrangements with various quintets, and most of the guys have preferred the Cm version. I believe I have a set of parts somewhere, and if you email me I will look for them.
