Flight of the Bumblebee, The

4 Euphoniums and 5 Tubas

Today one of the most famous pieces of classical music, this work was actually written as a mere interlude in Rimsky-Korsakov’s 1899-1900 opera The Tale of Tsar Saltan. An ideal encore for any tuba-euphonium ensemble program, this work is particularly effective when performed from memory, with great possibility for choreography by the most ambitious of ensembles!
