  1. Alleluia

    Composer: Ippolitov-Ivanov, Mikhail Arranger: Chiang, FuChou
    Instrumentation: Quartet Instruments: Euphonium, Tuba
    Genre: Classical

    Ivanov was a Russian composer, teacher and conductor, taking a majority of his tutelage from Russian great Rimsky-Korsakov, eventually using his talents to direct the academy of music and the local branch of the Russian Music Society in Tbilisi, Georgia. Moscow Conservatory appointed him professor in 1893 where he remained until his death, teaching harmony, orchestration and composition, and directing the institution between 1905 and 1922.

    This Alleluia harkens his experience as a student performer in the boy's choir of St. Issac with warm resonant harmonies and very choral style of writing, making this arrangement suitable for church performances or rehearsal warm-ups.

  4. Shipped - Due Pezzi Perpetua

    Composer: Kehlenbach, Brian
    Instrumentation: Trio Instruments: Tuba
    Genre: Contemporary

    The Due Pezzi Perpetua, or “Two Perpetual Pieces” for three tubas was composed for a consortium of commissioners from across the country organized by David Holben. The pieces are “perpetual” in the sense that both have a constant element that strives to lend an incessant nature to the themes.

    The first piece is somewhat like a freely composed prelude. To set the foundation, a single drone tone is established at the beginning and it is heard continuously until the closing bar, not even wanting to expire at that point. Of course, a long drone tone is quite impossible on a single tuba, but writing for
    three tubas allows an extended technique where the responsibility of sustaining the drone can be shared among the players.


    The second piece presents the feeling of a rustic dance, almost like a rhythmic bourée with syncopation. The theme is long winded, and it quickly assumes a kind of endless contrapuntal nature. As the individual lines entangle and interact, they take on an interminable quality that must undergo
    violent interruptions to stop the forward flow. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all contributing members of the consortium project who
    generously lent their support to make this new tuba trio possible.
