I am looking for Orchestral Low Brass Chorales. If you can give me the piece and the movement that would be great, if you can give me measure numbers or rehearsal letters that would be better. Any orchestral tuba and trombone soli will work.

Mahler and Bruckner symphonies are great for that sort of stuff.

The last movement of Mahler's 6th Symphony, at the very end, has a funeral march which is started by the tuba (reiterating the theme it states solo earlier in the movement). The three trombones take up the theme in a canonic manner. This chorale goes on for 6 or 8 measures. I do not remember the rehearsal number, but, as this piece is 70+ minutes, it's probably something like #236. There's also the fanfare from La Peri. I hope this is what you are looking for.

I hope you mean this because here it is:

Mahler 2 5th Mvmt. (1 measure after rehearsal #10)
Verdi Nabucco Overture
Bruckner 4 (5 before measure 310-333)
Tchaikovsky 6 4th Mvmt.(Rehearsal letter L to the end)
Smetana The Moldau from Ma Vlast(4 after rehearsal letter F)
Brahms Prelude No. 8-Chorale

These examples are all of the CSO Trombone & Tuba CD that I have. I will look for the exact rehearsal spots and put them up later if you wish. Hope this helps!

Also, consider buying this CD: http://www.windsongpress.com/CD/cso%20b ... obones.htm

How about the end of Firebird (Stravinsky)?
Bruckner 4, 1st mvt chorale, ranks as my absolute favorite.
