    Algirdas Matonis - Holst Second Suite in F

    Earlier today I stumbled on a 'live' instructional video on how to play Holst's Second Suite in F. This is a favorite of many euphers who play in wind bands. This is a new arrangement for four euphoniums and two tubas by Drew Fennell, so a little different part in places. Drew Fennell plays or played flugel horn with the River City Brass Band. Mr. Matonis (principal euph with River City Brass) plays some parts of the piece and discusses how to play it correctly. If he makes a mistake - like chipping or splitting a note - he stops and discusses how he goes about correcting his mistake. The screen depicts both bass and treble clef of each movement. Pretty interesting and about 1:40 long.

    If interested, see this link:

    I just edited the link above to skip the long intro of over 2 minutes. Hope that helps.
