The Serenade, Op. 37 was conceived for Cello with Piano accompaniment, but later in life the composer scored the work for the solo instrument with orchestra. The Low Brass world knows Rimsky-Korsakov for his Trombone Concerto for Band. The Serenade has a very similar mood to the slow movement of the Concerto. It's beautiful lilting rhythm combined with a wonderful melody makes this work very worthwhile.
Mr. Sauer's arrangement brings a beautiful feel to this 4 minute work, which is appropriate for advanced performers.

Parts for Bass and Treble readers are supplied.

The Vocalises by Giuseppe Concone were originally composed in the 19th Century as exercises for vocalists learning their art. More lately in the 20th Century, musicians have discovered this body of literature and have transcribed these exercises for every possible instrument for their inherent benefit in teaching musical expression, phrasing, lyricism and breath control.
Volume 1 of these duets or counterparts for Euphonium and Tuba are perfect for teacher and student to help perfect the techniques mentioned above and are of intermediate difficulty.
