This is probably going to sound very random (and maybe a bit illegal), but does anyone know of a free online version of Theme and Variations on The Blue Bells of Scotland for tuba? I found a trombone/baritone version online for free, but I am trying to avoid having to transcribe it down an octave on Musescore because there's no way that I am going to be able to hit an F above the F above the staff. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you!
I figured I would ask here because you all seem to know everything on this forum.

Re: Random Question
Yeah, I guess I could do that but I feel like it would be a lot to think about and play at the same time.

Re: Random Question
Octave transposition is a valuable skill for a tuba player! I would say learn to do it.

Re: Random Question
Sorta... but once you learn the piece and know how it goes... are you REALLY following the page that closely?

Play parts written for string bass, for one thing.

Re: Random Question
By octave transposition you mean just take it down in my head while playing it?
