This popular hymn tune is here arranged for euphonium solo with brass band accompaniment. A reflective arrangement that should be part of every euphonium player's repertoire.
Winter Hill is situated in the West Pennine Moors and is a popular destination for walkers. The music is an evocation and haunting slow melody which tells the story of a journey to the summit.

Solo for Euphonium & Band. Duration 4.15
Howard Snell writes :
Written in memory of two aquaintances, Oration is also connected in my mind with the Aberfan disaster when 144 souls, 112 of them children, were engulfed when liquid coal waste slipped to drown a school. The image in my mind is of a preacher's passionate funeral valediction... a farewell... against the background of a sombre graveside gathering. Although written for euphonium it has been recorded by on trumpet Chris Jaudes. 'Oration is just lovely' wrote one reviewer.

Grade 3 (Soloist 3.5)
A fun and melodic euphonium solo with brass band by Andrea Price.
Commissioned by the Blackley Brass Band for use at the French Open Championships, Out of Shadows is an approachable yet interesting euphonium solo with a contrast of fast, technical playing and slow, lyrical melodies. The piece does not tell a story as such, but the title is derived from the two moods apparent in the piece. The solo starts in a dark and mysterious way in a minor key, with driving rhythms in the band parts and detached, rhythmic playing from the soloist. The second part of the piece is more flowing and in a lighter, major key.
