An Opera Suite for Tuba and Piano : Sheet Music

This suite features five famous opera arias from the bass repertoire. It begins with a light-hearted aria from Papageno the Birdcatcher, one of the principle characters in Mozarts
famous Magic flute. Next is a rapturous song to the evening star (O du mein holder
Abendstern) with its lush Wagnerian melodic and harmonic structures. Ah! Pescator is
light hearted, but only on the surface; Ponchielli weaves treachery into a joyful fishermans
song. Next comes the impassioned cries of Rigelleto as he attempts to rescue his Daughter
from the masterwork by Verdi. As a finale, the suite ends with the rollicking song of the
king of the jolly Pirates of Penzance. This suite will delight your listeners and makes for
an excellent recital or showpiece.
