High School solos

Post by wicax »

I need some suggestions on solos for tuba for a sophomore level tuba player. im in the MMM (tri-m) music program at my school and part of it is participating in the state's ensemble and solo contest as a requirement to stay in MMM. the other requirements are no problem for me. the whole solo thing isnt really my shtick but i dont got a choice due to awful planning on my part. also if anyone could suggest some good chamber group music. i could probably muster people together for just about any composition. id prefer woodwinds (ik thats an odd match up) its just majority of people ik are woodwind players. i could get a trumpet and trombone however. whatever you can suggest really helps there is plenty of time before the contest i wanna plan ahead this time again thank you for whatever you give me. please excuse the awful grammar and spelling as well. have a good day everyone!
