12 Easy Duets for Tuba
Composer: Paff, John
Instrumentation: Duet Instruments: Tuba
Genre: Contemporary12 Easy Duets for Tuba is designed with young or inexperienced players in mind who may have limited or no previous experience with duets or chamber music. Rhythms, ranges and key signatures are limited in order to accommodate the player in adjusting to the concept of playing in harmony, as well as developing mutual cooperation necessary in playing a duet. The selections are in a variety of styles, while avoiding faster tempos that could add difficulty without benefit. While written to help instruct, the duets are intended to be performable. A young player can feel a great sense of accomplishment when performing a new (to the player) kind of music, and duets can feel more “safe” than a solo to a young performer. Enjoy the fun of playing duets! Learn MoreUpdate Required To play the media you will need to either update your browser to a recent version or update your Flash plugin.From $12.00

Concerto for Tuba
Composer: McMillan, Benjamin
Instrumentation: Solo and Piano Instruments: Piano, Tuba
Genre: Contemporarywith Piano
This work was commissioned by Timothy Northcut in honor of Winston Morris, professor of tuba and euphonium at Tennessee Tech University since 1967. Among many others, his former students—both Tim and I included—call him a mentor, friend, and genuine hero to the tuba-euphonium world. Anyone who’s met Winston knows that he’s a larger-than-life character, and our goal was to capture a snapshot of that character within the piece.
The first movement, RWM, is constructed from a rhythmic motive that forms the basis of the entire work: 1/4 note followed by 4 1/8 notes
This motive, based on the name ‘R. Winston Morris’, becomes the driving force throughout the work, acting as a musical anchor point. The entrance of the solo tuba introduces the main musical theme that goes on to form much of the melodic material. Conceptually, the first movement represents a day in September of 1967 as Morris began his career at Tennessee Tech University. Beginning with a gentle, noble theme, the mood quickly builds and shifts into an energetic and sometimes whimsical whirlwind. The end of the movement relentlessly hammers out the motive—a tribute to Winston’s unrelenting musical drive. This abruptly shifts with the final note, moving seamlessly into the second movement.
The second movement, Sweet Steel, is dedicated in loving memory to Barbara “Bobbie” Morris. Although the tone is very dark and brooding, it’s ultimately a love song by the soloist, journeying through the stages of grief. From the darkness a second theme, hopeful and uplifting, rises to a heartfelt climax.
The final movement, Cookevegas, is a tongue-in-cheek reference to Cookeville, TN, home of Winston and Tennessee Tech University. His love of jazz is a major influence on this hectic, jazzy trip through the small Southern city. A return of the driving ‘RWM’ motive from the first movement brings the concerto to its finale.
Recording is from the premiere with the U.S. Army Band:

Mini-Suite for Solo Tuba
Composer: Ingram, Charles
Instrumentation: Solo Instruments: Tuba
Genre: Contemporaryunaccompanied
I. Praeludium
II. Getting Around
III. Simple Song
IV. Off Waltz
V. Pompous March
VI. Faux Gigue
The Mini Suite for Solo Tuba was composed in 2015 for my good friend Dr. Richard Perry who is the Tuba/Euphonium professor at the University of Southern Mississippi. Dr. Perry was preparing a recital of unaccompanied music for tuba, and he asked me for a new piece.
The structure of the Mini Suite is very loosely based on the idea of the Baroque instrumental suite. While the Baroque suite is based on a series of dances, this one consists of six movements which are fleeting impressions found in the character pieces that are common in the Romantic period. The last movement is the only one that gives the nod to an actual dance found in the traditional Baroque suite.
The first movement, Praeludium, has no programmatic title and serves the purpose of opening the suite.
The second movement, Getting Around, gives the impression of someone who is far too busy to take time for himself until the last measure when he succumbs to exhaustion.
The third movement, Simple Song, is just that; a simple melody that is delivered without any undue fussiness.
The next movement, Off Waltz, is muted throughout and the steady rhythm that embodies the waltz is obscured on several occasions so that the beat is “off”.
The Pompous March hints at a self-important individual strutting his stuff around town and unintentionally making a comical spectacle of himself.
The final movement, Faux Gigue, goes back to the model of the Baroque suite which generally ended with a lively gigue in compound meter. I decided to write this one in three-quarter time as opposed to one of the compound meters. The term faux is a nod to the fact that this piece does not have the contrapuntal texture that is characteristic of the gigue. It also has meter changes that occur here and there which throws the steadiness of the dance out of kilter.

15 Orchestral Etudes for Contrabass Tuba
Composer: McMillan, Benjamin
Instrumentation: Tuba Methods/Studies/Etudes Instruments: Tuba
Genre: ContemporaryInspired by the mundane ritual of practicing standard orchestral excerpt lists, these 15 etudes present a new twist for the auditioning tuba player. The etudes will promote orchestral audition success by allowing the performer to practice techniques (articulations, rhythm, breath support, etc.) needed for a successful audition without having to practice the actual excerpts. Of course to win that audition, one must practice the actual excerpts as well. Good luck!
