On Wings of Song - Euphonium Video

Rating: 2 votes, 5.00 average.
This is my newest video: On Wings of Song ("Auf Flugeln des Gesanges") by Felix Mendelssohn, arranged by me. I did the arrangement years ago but I never got around to programming it anywhere that was recording the event... until now.

It's a great song that I have always liked in its original form, and it seems like a natural for euphonium. It's fun to play and does not require any advanced technique. Thus it is a great learning tool for musical interpretation. You can easily find recordings of it, and even a decent high school player can try to emulate the fine expression that you can hear in the recordings. It would be a fine choice for a recital or for a worship service.

Printed sheet music or downloadable sheet music can be obtained here (includes bass and treble parts):
