I am in need for 2 solos (or a duet to make life easy on me) for Euphonium and Tuba with band for 2 of my seniors for our spring concert. Both students playing at a very high level for seniors (euphonium recently played the Jacobs fantasia and tuba player just played first mvt. of the Vaughn Williams for solo and ensemble and received superior rating.) Any suggestions or pieces I can get to arrange would be great. Thanks in advance.

How advanced is the ensemble that they would be performing with?

Average. Strong low brass then average for high school through the rest of the ensemble.

I've adapted Werden's 2-euph ENDEARING YOUNG CHARMS for tuba-euph. Really hard.

As a euphonium solo, "Benedictus" from Karl Jenkins' "The Armed Man: A Mass for Peace" is beautiful and I think not particularly challenging in terms of technique. The only arrangement I know of is for euph and "brass band".
Here's David Childs playing it:

Bernie,
CIMARRON has the corrected band parts. Bryan can contact me for the solo parts.
