Greetings TUBENET!
Have you heard about the James Grant consortium project “10 Blind Dates for Solo Tuba” and want to know more? Becoming a member of the consortium (which is only $29.95 to join) will allow you to get direct correspondence with the composer, including complete drafts of the music, and you’ll be among the FIRST group to receive your copy in the mail so you can program and perform it. Here’s a sample of what the first movement is shaping up to be so far! This is being composed with college students in mind, so get your studio members involved!

Here's a list of the movements included in the work...

1. Nervous anxiety | Eager anticipation | Relaxed
2. Small Talk
3. So Much in Common
4. Fanfare for Nothing in Common
5. Love At First Sight
6. Chatty | Annoying
7. Reflecting; Revolving Spoon
8. Opposites Attract
9. Tons of Fun
10. Emergency Number Speed - Dial Rescue Phone Call
