New Entries on the Euphonium CD page

Rate this Entry
There are two new items listed on the Euphonium CD page.



The first is by euphoniumist Pat Stuckemeyer, who offers a really nice variety of music on his CD called Just for Fun. There is good blend of original euphonium music, transcriptions, and an original duet for euphonium and trumpet (originally written for Brian Bowman and his brother).



The second entry is an album by Gerard Schwarz (yes, the trumpet player) called Turn of the Century Cornet Favorites. Most of this album is cornet solos conducted by Gunther Schuller. This in itself is of interest to euphonium players because many of the featured solos are standard euphonium material as well. But there is also a recording with Schwarz on euphonium, playing Mephisto Masque for Opheclide and orchestra. This a rare but attractive piece written in the 19th century by Edmond Dede.
