Brass Ensemble, Brass Quintet French Horn, Trombone, Trumpet, Tuba - Level 4 - Digital Download
SKU: A0.1641457
Composed by Gregory Fritze. This edition: pdf, streaming. 20th Century, Chamber, Classical, Contest, Festival, Jazz. 40 pages. Musica Nova USA #1208914. Published by Musica Nova USA (A0.1641457).
“Basso Concertino” is a piece for tuba solo and brass quartet (2 trumpets, horn and
trombone). Gregory Fritze composed it in 1984 for the Thundermist Brass Quintet. It was
premiered that year with the composer as tuba soloist. During the 1980s it was performed
several times in recital and sometimes for children’s concerts in the public schools. It is an
exciting “tuba feature” with expressive tuba melodies, and solo range that encompasses
four octaves.
It is in two sections, the first being in a slow tempo where cantable melodies are
featured. The second section is in Allegro tempo that is more rhythmic, including some
jazz rhythms. An extended cadenza sets up a return of a cantabile segment before the final
Allegro featuring a scale to the double high C.
Gregory Fritze recorded the solo with the Cambridge Symphonic Brass Ensemble in
1986 on Crystal Records (vinyl) S552 and can be heard on youTube. In 2021 Sergio Finca
recorded the tuba solo with the Spanish Brass on Spanish Brass Records SB036.
