Hello everyone,

I was wondering if anyone would know of some arrangements or tuba quartets worth looking into that would be appropriate to play for a church gig.

Thank you!

I'm not really much of a tuba quartet guy, but I really like this one and wouldn't be embarrassed to play it in a church.

Check out Cimarron Music Press' listings, They have several.

Cimarron Music would have my arrangement of Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring and also Bist Du Bei Mir, but of which work nicely for church.

Can't recommend these enough. Not too difficult to prepare, not so easy they are dull. Good high school players can play most of these. Have played several of them, very recently, and they went over very well.

John Stevens "Benediction" is pretty and is good in a church setting.

How about "Go Not Far from Me, O God," by Zingarelli. It is a favorite of choir directors and lies nicely for tuba quartet.

Contact me privately for more information on the quartet arrangement.
