Beschreibung
Tubalosity was selected to be premiered by Kenyon Wilson at Indiana
University, USA in 2014 as part of the Fifteen Minutes of Fame series. The
piece is inspired by the versatility of the tuba sound - that of the funky
bass and the melodic voice. The player should imagine they are playing both
parts simultaneously as though the bass line is there all the way through, in
the style of singer Bobby McFerrin. Performance Notes: Tubalosity has both
a melody and a bass line - bring out the melody line in the upper notes from
bar 5. Notes with a cross-hatch head should be a tongue-click into the
mouthpiece. In bars 8, 12, 14, 15 and 20 the upper notes should be sung at
the same time as playing the lower note. The sung notes should be in
whichever octave is comfortable in the player's range.
