Euphonium Solo - Holst - March from 2nd Suite in F

[@dwerden]

It's nothing I would choose to write. The band version is a classic, and the lyrical solo is already a feature for euphonium within the band. Euphonium also gets to play some of the 6/8 melody, so it's already a great piece to play just as Holst wrote it! But we don't always have a band with us while playing a recital ;-)

Thank you Mr. Werden and Mrs. Young. Your rendition makes my day. This is the first time I hear my favorite march played as a duet, Euphonium and Piano. Great!!!!!!

[@this_game_doodoobro9918]

I had to play that on trumpet the 1st part

[@dwerden]

Hey, you didn't have to -- you GOT to!

[@johnnychou2546]

No words.. just beautiful...

[@nickm2890]

Beautifully played by both of you! Hearing the euphonium solo really brought me back to my years in band. Your playing is absolutely beautiful. Truly amazing work

[@aeroplano111]

Very beautiful playing. I love the evenness of tone throughout all registers of your playing. Not to mention, your sound is truly a pleasure to hear; it's glorious.

[@TheListerbo]

Lovely - with or without band. Great playing!

Hey Dave, Just wanted to let you know that my college tuba/euph ensemble (of 25 this year!) Are playing the arrangement of this. I had to tell them about the great David werden. It is such a great arrangement. I just wish I could play the first euph part better :^) Thanks

[@dwerden]

Thanks, Nicholas! If it help, here is a video where I explain how I think one should go about playing this solo: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3yWq4t6ndFradk

[@GBStudio-Cave]

that was awesome

[@quistian]

Loved this spritely rendering.

[@vidgamekid]

Ah I played this song in a concert band situation last year at Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp. Amazing song! You sound terrific'!

[@TheAwesomeTan-vt9xc]

Are band didn’t have a euphonium-so I had to play it on horn-however if I could learn another instrument it would definitely be the euphonium.

[@joannhamm3301]

Beautiful!

[@sabosannsann]

how beautiful! I want to be like this man

[@tonewheeler1]

Nice Dave, Bravo!

[@eupher53]

Very nice Dave.

[@dwerden]

I don't understand your question. I am playing a true euphonium in this video, and that is my primary instrument. (I also own a true British-bore baritone; you can find a video of my playing it on An die Musik on KZbin.)

[@davidaubuchon7309]

Excellent!

[@S76lewis]

I enjoyed it, quite peppy

[@timboleo]

Very cool@@

[@5610winston]

...to Swansea Town once more!

[@dwerden]

Just expand the video's description. There are links there for either the downloadable or the printed version.

なんてキレイ！　私もこの人みたいになりたい！

[@katelane2618]

Lovely - Any chance you could issue this arrangement in treble clef Bb? (my son plays a Bb baritone)

[@dwerden]

Kate Lane Just expand the description to see it all. There are links there, and the solo part is included in both bass and treble clef.

[@paolovueuph]

Hi, is there anychance you can give me the link to this piano and euphonium accompaniment sheet music?

[@dwerden]

You can get the sheet music here: www.sheetmusicplus.com/search?Ntt=holst+two+songs+david+werden&aff_id=15680

[@FreezingGamer1]

Is there any way to get a recording of just the piano accompaniment?

[@wesowen6624]

You should do Molly On The Shore

[@aeroplano111]

No, that is an Adams compensating euphonium.

[@vidgamekid]

Also as a side note; where would I find this arrangement?

[@arozade9192]

Could this be accompanied with a band?

[@HeyItsANerd]

Gustavo Guevara it's a classic band piece titled Second Suite in F by Gustav Holst.

[@aeroplano111]

Why do you recommend a true baritone over a euphonium?

[@EuphoniumGuyHAM]

Why don't I sound that good?
