Oxford University Press Concerto for Tenor Tuba and Orchestra - Vaughan Williams - Tenor Tuba/Piano - Book
Arrangement for tenor tuba and piano
Composer: Ralph Vaughan Williams
Piano Reduction: Rodney Newton
Format: Book
Instrumentation: Tenor Tuba and Piano
Level: Moderately Difficult - Difficult
Vaughan Williams's Concerto for Bass Tuba and Orchestra was the first major concerto to be written for the instrument. It was composed in 1953-4 to mark the 50th anniversary of the LSO, and was premiered by the orchestra's principal tuba player, Philip Catelinet. The original plan to transpose it for Euphonium was not realised during the composer's lifetime, and only now, in this transcription by David Childs, has that goal been attained, with Vaughan Williams's orchestration deftly transposed and rearranged by Rodney Newton to allow this characteristic work to enter the repertoire of many more players.
