Long Tone Duets for Euphoniums

$24.95

Long Tone Duets for Euphoniums by William Sutton is appropriate for high school through professional euphonium players.

Long Tone Duets for Euphoniums explores the use of long tones as a vehicle for improved sound, breathing, blending, dynamics, and intonation (harmonically and melodically). A variety of patterns has been provided, including duets for each major and minor key, duets featuring scales and harmonies, duets devoted to technique and repertoire, and duets for euphonium and tuba. To ensure a variety of long tone playing in your daily practicing, play a duet from each category every day.

Students will learn by emulating their teachers when playing Long Tone Duets. It’s the perfect opportunity to scrutinize and improve tone, intonation, and articulation because there is no complicated rhythmic activity to distract you from these issues.

"Teachers and their students will find that this book is a useful tool for improving the listening skills of developing musicians. Students who can play in tune and navigate harmonies accurately find greater success in their solo repertoire, chamber music, and large ensemble literature. Lastly, this book provides a fun method for students to build comfort in all major and minor keys." - Mai Kokubo, International Euphonium Soloist; Adjunct Faculty, Aichi University of the Arts

On top of all these pedagogical benefits, the duets are a blast to play! This book is a versatile and fun resource that all low brass teachers should have in their library, and I’m excited to use it in my studio.” - Dr. Jamie Lipton, Professor of Low Brass, Henderson State University
