Discographies

Brian Bowman (who also wrote "You Play a What?", which is also available here) has put together this nifty euphonium discography.

Recording Suggestions

The following suggestions have come from various people on the 'net:

Several people have recommended "The Cool Sound of Pepper Adams" (Savoy Jazz label), although I have not heard it myself.

Another person suggested The New Columbia Brass Band, "Music from America's Golden Age" on Walking Frog Records, P.O. Box 680, Oskaloosa, Iowa 52577 CD, Cut #9 "All Those Endearing Young Charms" Simone Mantia 6:10, a euphonium solo by virtuoso Earl L. Louder.

One professional euphonium player told me: "As for euphonium recordings, the most amazing one I ever heard was Brian Bowman playing 'Fantasia Di Concerto' with the AF Band in Washington DC. I think the lp is named Solos. If you haven't heard it, you should."

Summit Records has several euphonium recordings in their catalog. From e-mail from Summit:

Podium music supplies fully-published sheet music for all kinds of brass and woodwind ensembles. They specialize in sheet music for "non-traditional" groups, or any group for which an abundance of published sheet music is not easily found (low brass groups). They're on the web at http://www.info.london.on.ca/~podium/
