Brass Sheet Music
on: July 06, 2008, 02:22:34 PM
Hello all,

My cousin plays an E flat Tenor Horn (like I do) and with his school exams approaching in November, he needs to find sheet music that would be suitable for someone of his age (15).

I can't find anything anywhere! Does anyone have any suggestions?

Sorry old chap but i cannot help here.

I really wouldn't know where to start.

20 years of smoking Rothman Royals has destroyed any interest i may have had in playing the instrument.

Same pitch as the alto trombone, might want to look at the literature for that.  there's lots of it out there, especially baroque concerti.

Couldn't you give more details? Perhaps a few sites to help us?

Umm.. why?  (as in why play Eb tenor horn?)

What is that exactly?  An Eb French horn?  Or something like a baritone or euphonium?

Try calling/contacting a music business.  They can do a lot of legwork for you most times.  JW Pepper is a big one and should be easy to find online.
