  • Opera Suite for Tuba & Piano
    This suite features five famous opera arias from the bass repertoire. It begins with a light hearted aria from Papageno the Birdcatcher, one of the principle characters in Mozart's famous Magic flute. Next is a rapturous song to the evening star (O du mein holder Abendstern) with it's lush Wagnerian melodic and harmonic structures. "Ah! Pescator" is light hearted, but only on the surface; Ponchielli weaves treachery into a joyful fisherman's song. Next comes the impassioned cries of Rigelleto as he attempts to rescue his Daughter from the masterwork by Verdi. As a finale, the suite ends with the rollicking song of the king of the jolly 'Pirates of Penzance." This suite will delight your listeners and makes for an excellent recital or showpiece.
  • Messiah Solos : Tuba or Trombone/Euphonium
    I have transcribed these solos with the original baroque tempo and phrasing marks; they are very minimal and leave the performers a wide berth for interpretation. Baroque style allows for certain amount of improvisation from the soloist and I suggest you experiment with appoggiaturas, trills, suspensions, etc. Several places have been marked as suggested cadenzas. The third selection in this edition uses a version from one of Handel’s performance scores. The fourth selection omits the minor b-section of the solo and replaces it with a closing cadenza instead of repeating the a-section.
