    Disclaimer: this arrangement was for a high school level brass quintet, with a euphonium subbing for the tuba, hence the seemingly ridiculous range. I've since updated the arrangement for a more advanced group with a real tuba part, which you can check out here: ua-cam.com/video/PLlZ3ScjA0Q/v-deo.html

    As someone who has been playing tuba for a long time, that part is pretty dang high. Like I can play it, but it's really quite uncomfortable to be playing the trumpets equivalent of a high C (the Eb above the stave). I would suggest some editing could be good.

    Really great job but a couples things.
    1) when you first introduce the Force theme, you HAVE to write it in the Horn part. It's just not the same without it.
    2) when you do write it in the Horn part (and where the Horn does play it later) write it an octave up. Most (if not all) university and professional horn players can play a high A no problem.
    Just things to think about. Also, as a trumpet player, maybe you can write some of the 1st parts for piccolo trumpet. It has a nicer timber for some of the high stuff. :)

      @cameronplaystrumpet6777 6 років тому +5

      Andrew Swortzel I agree with the Horn part, as a all around brass player, but mainly Horn and trumpet, it almost physically hurts me when it isn't introduced in Horn. This arrangement was for a high school though, so keep that in mind. As far as piccolo trumpet, just no. There's no need.

    • @xander8574

      as a highschooler (freshman) that plays f horn, a high A is easy. but this should not represent all horns, as i played trumpet in middle school and had a higher range (could easily hit high C, which is the C on the second ledger line if im correct. if not, it is the c i hit).

    • @theconductortoad

      Also, make sure that your not pushing the trombone/euph parts as far as range goes. I think that is a euphonium part on the bottom staff because most of those notes would be too high for tuba. Also, if they are playing on a regular tenor trombone, that low E-flat may not be possible. On three-valve baritones/euphs that low E-flat would not be possible as well without note bending really flat.
