Got to enjoy a tuba recital

Post by umlaut_kraut »

Hi,

I was finally (after over a year of not making it) able to attend a tuba recital at the Stuttgart Music College.

Works performed were:

Thomaso Albinoni - Oboe Concert d minor

That was the only non-original piece.


Eric Ewazen - Concerto for Tuba
Ralph Vaughn Williams - Concerto for Tuba f minor
Eugene Joseph Bozza - Tuba Concertino
Eduard Gregson - Alarum for solo tuba
Jacques Casterede - Sonatine für Tuba
Anthony di Lorenzo - Sonata for Tuba
Roland Szentpali - Concerto for Tuba
Paul Hindemith - Sonate für Tuba

Very diverse with lots of background information provided. Most of the performances were at least good with maybe a few glitches, some were fantastic, one guy may have had a bad day. Vaughn Williams was performed twice, once in its entirety and then a very young student who is just getting ready for an orchestral performance played movements Nr. 2 and 3.

Cheers,
Frank
