A fantastic tuba feature
with brass ensemble
backing. Driving
semiquaver rhythms push
this piece forwards
whilst remaining away
from the centre of
attention which is
undoubtedly the big old
tuba! Full of semiquavers
and scales rushing up to
the top of the range of
the instrument, there can
be no doubt that the tuba
is the star of the show.
The solo part is
carefully thought through
with enough rests to make
it approachable, while
the syncopation in the
other parts give the
music an energy that is
maintained to the very
final flourish,
instigated by a
demisemiquaver scale run
on the tuba! Intermediate
and above ensemble parts,
but the solo tuba part
needs a fairly skilled
and confident player to
get the most out of this
piece.
