Brass Quintet/Sextet Music

Is there any where to buy songs for these anywhere? An intermediate to advanced high school level would be appropriate. For 2 Trumpets, 1 Horn, 1 Trombone, 1 Tuba. I would like to have a Euphonium as well. Where can I find decent music?

Hickeys.com located in Ithaca NY

Robert King Music Sales. I am not sure of their web address. Do a search and you should be able to find it.

JWPepper is also in your back yard in Paoli PA (I live near Reading).

Also listed in the "shops" menu above is Bernel Music. The problem is finding music at the appropriate level. Hickeys will be able to help you with difficulty. There are also a number of Canadian Brass books out with multiple pieces in different styles. The books are arranged by difficulty (beginning, Easy, Intermediate and Advanced, I believe are the levels).
These would be worth checking out if you are just starting out in the brass quintet world. They are not real expensive and you then have a library of pieces to play.
good luck and have fun!

How about full brass ensembles (2-4 trumpets, 2-4 horns, 2-3 trombones, euphonium (possibly), and a tuba)? Any good sites for that?
