Six Etudes for Tuba

Robert Marsteller had an illustrious career as a performing artist and a pedagogue, influencing many hundreds of musicians in a major way. His Six Etudes for Tuba (adapted from the tenor trombone version by Gordon Cherry) most likely were written while studying at the Eastman School of Music in the late 1930's, as they are dedicated to his teacher Emory Remington.


The etudes are challenging technically, in many keys, written in a wide range and are very satisfying musically to perform. If practiced correctly, these études will surely be of great value to aspiring performers.


These etudes are in the F tuba range, but may be performed on the C tuba by using F tuba fingerings


Foreword by tuba legend Roger Bobo, former student of Robert Marsteller.
