Save me the time of searching. Is there a book of Holiday tunes similar to Roger Vaughan's "American Favorites"? Two tubas and two euphs with treble clef parts in a format similar to the "Merry Tuba Christmas" books but with different tunes.

EDIT.... I have all of the religious-type tunes I need. Looking more for things like "Frosty the Snowman", "Rudolph", "Jingle Bells", etc.

Two tubas in bass clef.
Two euphoniums in both bass and treble clef.

I see some single tunes out there but was hoping to find books.

Hi Dan. I don’t know if this is what you might want, but my sons and I played in some malls here in the Austin area a few years back and we played out of, Caroler’s Favorites, published by Triumphant Productions. It’s a Salvation Army publication. We used parts 1 and 2, in treble clef, on euphoniums. Then we used parts 3 and 4, in bass clef, on bass and contrabass tubas. The voicings can get muddled at times, but it works and there are 133 songs in the books, ranging from the standard carols to most of the popular Christmas tunes. It’s a great collection of Christmas tunes all around.

Thanks, Bill. However... I don't see bass clef euph parts for 1 and 2. Am I missing something?

No, Dan. No TC parts, as they were designed for brass band use, and not tuba/euph quartet. I misunderstood you. I thought you wanted TC parts.

OK. Then let me re-phrase my request:

Two tubas in bass clef.
Two euphoniums in both bass and treble clefs.

Well then, sorry, Dan. No BC parts for the euphoniums here.

Don't know if this is what you are looking for:

I can vouch for the good cheer collection--it is outstanding! and, I am pretty sure it boasts a treble euph part, too.

Yes... the "Good Cheer Collection" is good. However... it's a lot like the "Merry Tuba Christmas" books that I also have.

I'm still holding out for books full of stuff like "Frosty", "Here Comes Santa Claus", etc.

I'm thinking that most of the popular 20th century Christmas songs would still be under copyright and any legal arrangements would have to have some sort of agreement with the original publisher.

Obvious, but often overlooked are the TubaChristmas books. There are a bunch of nice songs that may just sound better with only 4 players than a room full of blatters. I know we use them for every concert we play at Christmas with our T-E 4-tet.

The Tuba Christmas books also have Eb alto horn parts available that double the euph parts, IMMIC.
