Category: SOLOS for Bass Trombone Arranger: Stefan Schweigin
Solo for Bass Trombone and Brass Band.
This catchy piece became a massive hit in the 1970s, when Jim Henson used the catchy melody in his children’s TV series The Muppet Show and Sesame Street. Stefan Schwalgin has produced this excellent version to give bass trombone players, who sometimes feel left out by the band’s repertoire, a platform for their soloistic development. This gem is full of little musical surprises and will hold a special place in your bands repertoire.

Feature solo for Bb. Cornet - click on MORE DETAILS to hear an audio extract or view the Solo cornet part.
This fantastic arrangement of the well-known Advent hymn 0 Come, 0 Come, lmmanuel aims to expand on the power and mystery of the original tune and will be most effective if, at the start and end of the piece, the solo cornet can stand away from the band, maybe at the back of the auditorium.
The Advent hymn we all know today as 0 Come, 0 Come, Immanuel was arranged in its modern form by Thomas Helmore and published in Hymnal Noted in 1856. Both the words and melody, however, predate this version by centuries. The words are based on a 9th century antiphon, one of the seven so-called ‘0’ antiphons (they all begin with ‘0’, as in ‘0 Emmanuel...’, ‘0 RadixJesse... etc.), which were sung, one daily, during the last seven days before Christmas both before and after the Magnificat at Vespers. ‘0 Emmanuel...’ was the last of the seven, sung on December 23rd.
The tune, Veni Immanuel, is taken from a 15th century processional of French Franciscan nuns, part of the setting for the funeral hymn Libera Me.
18 original concert studies for advanced euph. players. Includes a demo CD featuring Steven Mead.
This is the BASS clef version.
Steven Mead says of this book : "Here are 18 original concert studies for you to enjoy. I am delighted to be involved with this terrific project and to bring to you these pieces. As you can see from the list of contributors, it really is an all-star line up of prominent brass composers who have turned their special talents to the genre of unaccompanied euphonium. You will have your favorites in this book as well as all present great challenges. They are not meant to be easy! Careful study will result in progress. Even if you do not get the chance to perform these in public, you will benefit from playing them. . I hope you find the CD useful. Try not to rely on it too much though. Make your musical decisions and use your imagination. I feel sure that these studies will become revered in the euphonium world and represent an important landmark in the history of our repertoire. Study exams and unaccompanied works in recitals need never again be full of trombone or trumpet solos arranged for the euphonium."

Solo for Euphonium.
Duration 6.30
In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries the ‘fantasia’ or ‘pot-pourri’ was a popular genre built on a selection of hit tunes of the day. Hummel wrote three such works, for guitar, cello, and viola; this arrangement is based on a shortened version of the work for viola and
orchestra. The original, published as Hummel’s Opus 94, dates from about 1820 and includes themes from Mozart’s Don Giovanni, The Marriage of Figaro, Die Entführung aus dem Serail, and Rossini’s Tancredi.
