    Euphonium Duet: 'Rolling Down To Old Maui' - Steven Mead and Micah Dominic Parsons

    Hello everyone,

    I wanted to share with you the online premiere of a brand new Euphonium Duet written for myself and Steven Mead by Iain Rayner entitled 'Rolling Down To Old Maui'.

    You can view this premiere performance at the following link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ALT0ChTYdg.

    Best Wishes,

    Micah Dominic Parsons

    Very nice (and well played)! One might listen to the first 75% and think, "Gee, I could probably sight read that." But then it gets a bit exciting near the end!

    FYI, I added it to the "Euphonium Videos" group on Facebook.

        Hello Dave and John,

        I hope that you are both keeping well.It was a real privilege to perform this duet with Steven Mead, I think we recorded the whole duet in around three full takes which was really amazing. I have a set of new Euphonium Duets which I am hoping to record before the music is released to the public.

        Thank you so much for adding sharing this video for me Dave and I hope it will not be too long until we are able to catch up again.

        Best Wishes,

        Micah Dominic Parsons
