The Alfred Sound Performance for Young Musicians book for tuba by Chris Bernotas and Jim Palmer offers a versatile collection designed for students toward the end of their first year of instruction. You'll find a diverse array of folk songs, classical themes, holiday favorites and patriotic tunes arranged to be performed as solos, duets or trios—with or without piano accompaniment. These pieces are ideal for solo performances, chamber concerts or as engaging additions to your regular concert programs. The arrangements utilize notes and rhythms found in most beginning method books, allowing you to build confidence and independence on your instrument. Free online access provides full recordings, accompaniments and minus-one tracks so you can practice at your own pace, adjusting the tempo as needed. This collection promises a fun, rewarding experience to inspire musicality in young tuba players of all ages.
