Concert Duets is a collection of 14 arrangements of works by prominent 18th-century composers, mostly taken from Trio Sonatas. Duet 11 is a Jim Self original work in the Rococo style; and Duets 12, 13 and 14 are arrangements of the three-movements of the Bach Concerto for Two Violins. Included with this edition are play-along recorded tracks by tubist Zach Collins, who also served as editor of the current edition.I created these duets as Christmas gifts for my tuba playing friends, with the first duet being arranged in 1976. All 14 of the duets are challenging and fun to play and are especially effective as concert pieces.As a young musician I had the privilege of playing duets with many of the world’s finest tubists including Harvey Phillips, John Fletcher, Bob Pallansch, Chester, Schmitz, Dan Perantoni, Toby Hanks, Ron Bishop, Winston Morris and Tommy Johnson. I learned more about playing music in these duo sessions than from any other musical activity I have ever experienced. Duets are powerful teaching tools for learning and mastering rhythm, phrasing and intonation and for developing overall musicianship.Jim Self:Self (b. 1943) is a Los Angeles free-lance musician, a veteran of thousands of Hollywood motion pictures, television shows and records, and tuba soloist on many prominent movies. His tuba was the “Voice of the Mothership†in Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

Formerly he was in The U.S. Army Band and tuba / euphonium professor at the University of Tennessee. He holds a DMA from the USC Thornton School of Music where he is Adjunct Professor of Tuba and Chamber Music. His compositions and arrangements include works for solo tuba, brass quintet, other brass, string and woodwind chamber music, wind band and orchestra. Jim has produced many solo jazz and classical recordings. His music and recordings are available from Potenza Music and www.jimself.com. Jim Self is a Yamaha Performing Artist.Zach Collins, editor:Zach Collins is professor of Tuba and Euphonium at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. In 2019, he released his first solo album, Chronicle. It was recognized with the 2021 ITEA Roger Bobo Award for Excellence in Recording for the best Solo Tuba Album.His interpretation of William Kraft’s Encounters II for Solo Tuba was released on Cambria Master Recordings.

Undercurrents provides an electrifying, virtuosic showcase for the whole ensemble – featuring a series of solos, duets and trios, as well as highlighting the various chamber sections within the band. The music was inspired by watching schools of fish and flocks of birds perpetually moving with the ocean currents and air currents. Every once in a while a single solo shape will appear – or two or three – they dance apart for a moment and then are drawn back into the ensemble. Commissioned by the Naden Band of the Royal Canadian Navy, Victoria, BC, this is a powerful tour-de-force from beginning to end. Duration: c. 6:30.

Student Violin part with either teacher (as violin duets) or with piano accompaniment (Vln & Pno).This bumper volume incorporates the three separate former publications from Spartan Press, the series called 'Concertinos in the Olden Style' (SP1121–3).Piano accompaniments by Heidi Rolfe.Nigel Goldberg writes:I can still remember the thrill I felt as a child of 8 when my violin teacher introduced me to my first concertino. Learning, playing and eventually mastering the famous Küchler Concertino in D major made me feel privileged and grown-up, as if I were joining a very special club.That was a long time ago, yet for me concertinos still hold a distinctive place in the teaching repertoire. Having now taught the violin for the last thirty years and seen how happily my pupils respond to learning duets - that distinctive sense of enjoyment at playing with an adult, the improvement of intonation and tone production, the liveliness of the lesson - I have composed three new concertinos, inspired by the duet form.Taking three great keys for the violin – G, D and A minor, I have endeavoured to combine emotionally engaging and technically educational music in the 'Olden Style'. Uniquely, I have written a second violin part for the teacher to play alongside their pupil's part and there is also a piano accompaniment for use alternatively in concert settings.I very much hope that these concertinos prove as popular and as helpful as the series of duets in my previously published books, Sounds of a Rainbow and, that they ignite that sense of wonderment and purpose I experienced while playing the Kuchler, all those years ago.Former Spartan Press Cat.

This composition grew out of a musical concert in Chicago sometime in 1981. The concert was an outgrowth of public opinion about the superiority of various ensembles in three of the top five US Symphony Orchestras of that period. The Philadelphia Orchestra under Eugene Ormandy had the reputation of having the most luxurious string section of any orchestra in the world. Ormandy was a superior violinist himself, and worked his strings into providing a similar luxurious string sound of which he himself was master. It was agreed that the Boston Symphony had the top woodwind choir, and the Chicago Symphony the best brass choir. An outgrowth of these widely held opinions occurred in Chicago in 1981 when the Chicago Symphony Brass section announced a performance in Symphony Hall. The event attracted a sell out crowd and standing room overflow. Public interest was keen and intense. The detail of the concert included brass solos, duets and trios of a wide variety and concluded with a large brass choir work by a local composer, which had been commissioned to premiere in this concert. The musical evening was marvelous, a brilliant triumph for superlative brass players of world-class quality. Afterwards the players remained on the stage and were beset by hundreds of congratulating fans. The principal horn, Dale Clevenger, was a friend of mine who was present at the International Horn Conference in 1974, when Barry Tuckwell of the London Symphony premiered my Sonata for Horn and Piano. I congratulated Dale on the brass wonders that we had all just witnessed, and commented that the final brass work was somewhat disappointing. Dale said that he and the other players felt the same. At that point, Dale said Why don't you write a work for the Chicago Brass for our next offering? How could I not be complimented by such an invitation? I immediately started to write Stonehenge, having just visited Stonehenge in Britain a month or two earlier. But the Chicago Brass did not have a follow up to their first presentation, so there was no opportunity for my new work to be performed by them. Later there was a premiere in Madison, Wisconsin, by three professional brass quintets who were together hosted by the School of Music of the University of Wisconsin. They were joined by four superb percussionists from the Madison Symphony. Stonehenge received a wonderful ovation from an enthusiastic full house audience, and that led to wide use in the Midwest by other brass groups, including a professional brass choir in Minnesota, which recorded the work superbly, and two different tours of the work by a brass choir from the Indiana University School of Music. The wonderful response to this work's recording and its many performances have been a delight to the composer.

The C major Concerto K. 503 was held in particularly high esteem by Mozart, who, for example, put it on the program of his subscription concert at Leipzigs Gewandhaus in 1789, three years after it was written.
