brass quartet?
Trumpet/trumpet/small tenor trombone/euphonium. How much lit is there for it? Can playing off piano charts work?
It seems like it'd be a nice little chamber group and certainly easier to get 4 people together than 5.

Re: brass quartet?
You will find oodles of charts for this combo. The most commons probably being:
2 Trumpets
Horn or Trombone
Trombone
Good luck!

Re: brass quartet?
I've been playing occasional gigs with a quartet recently, and will be again for services over the Easter holiday.
The parts are for 2 trumpets, 2 trombones. I've just taken my PCK and played the Trombone 2 part down an octave.
I thought at the outset that the instrumentation was weird, but honestly, I like the sound of the group.
I'm sure there are other quartet instrumentations out there, but again these are all 2 trumpet, 2 trombone arrangements.
