Jim, you are my kinda guy.Hindemith is as far out as i ever intend to get and that's stretching it.Bach Eb,Strauss, and Ewald-my favorites! I'm never going to pretend to like all this modern solo tuba crap.Maybe one mvmt. of Cheetam and one mvmt of Ewazen are about the only thing i care for in the last 30yrs. HUMBUG...

Jim,

I look forward to hearing you at your recital.

Yeah... it's in Eb. I guess I was thinking about French horn and wrote horn in F... That's what I get for practicing and typing at the same time.

Allow me to second the compliments. Jim can make his beasts sing. I was especially thrilled with the lyrical quality of the Strauss piece.

The quintet that closed the program was some of the best quintet work I have ever heard. The ensemble blend was Canadian Brass quality and the tuba part was unmistakeable in its presence but never over-bearing.

I enjoyed meeting Jim his wife, mother, and fans. They are great folks and I wish Jim much success in his career.

what pieces were played and what horns used?

Thankyou so much for all the tubenetters that showed. I really love it when I have people to play for (instead of the typical 10 person Roosevelt audience)! It was great meeting all you guys. I'm happy that you enjoyed the performance.

Bach Strauss and Hindemith were done on my 181 6v yellowbrass F tuba and the Ewald was done on my Meinl Weston 2000.

Young and avocational players, like myself (avocational but not young), should make every effort to attend these recitals if at all possible. Music majors are already required to attend a certain number in most programs. Hearing folks like Jim and his colleagues play live has learning value that can never be derived from a CD or radio performance.

If you are near a college or unversity with a music program, check their web-site or recital schedule list and try to attend as many as possible. You will hear varied technique, become exposed to the literature, and provide moral suuport for your local tubist or euphoniumist.

In addition, these recitals afford the opportunity to hear fine playing for free. And they often serve refreshments afterwards!!!
