  • The Composer's Guide to the Tuba
    THE COMPOSER’S GUIDE TO THE TUBA: CREATING A NEW RESOURCE ON THE CAPABILITIES OF THE TUBA FAMILY Aaron Michael Hynds A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS August 2019 Committee: David Saltzman, Advisor Marco Nardone Graduate Faculty Representative Mikel Kuehn Andrew Pelletier © 2019 Aaron Michael Hynds All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT David Saltzman, Advisor The solo repertoire of the tuba and euphonium has grown exponentially since the middle of the 20th century, due in large part to the pioneering work of several artist-performers on those instruments. These performers sought out and collaborated directly with composers, helping to produce works that sensibly and musically used the tuba and euphonium. However, not every composer who wishes to write for the tuba and euphonium has access to world-class tubists and euphonists, and the body of available literature concerning the capabilities of the tuba family is both small in number and lacking in comprehensiveness. This document seeks to remedy this situation by producing a comprehensive and accessible guide on the capabilities of the tuba family. An analysis of the currently-available materials concerning the tuba family will give direction on the structure and content of this new guide, as will the dissemination of a survey to the North American composition community. The end result, the Composer’s Guide to the Tuba, is a practical, accessible, and composer-centric guide to the modern capabilities of the tuba family of instruments. iv To Sara and Dad, who both kept me going with their never-ending love.

  • Why Switch to Tuba?
    Why switch to Tuba? This question will most likely be the favorite one asked by your prospective switcher to tuba. The answers are fairly simple indeed: ¨ Tubas are the “heart” of a dark sound. ¨ The balance of any band starts with the tuba. ¨ Tuba does not require you to play in the extreme range of your instru- ment. ¨ You already know how to “buzz” a mouthpiece. ¨ The school provides the instrument (save money). ¨ You can make a difference on the tuba (too many trumpet players to begin with—you can be a STAR!). ¨ The fingering system on tuba is the same as trumpet except you get to use a 4th valve on a tuba (trumpets only have 3). The tuba is the “heart” of the bands sound. Everyone knows that the sound of your band comes from the low brass. If you do not have good low brass then your ensemble will not have the dark velvet sound that you are looking for. I refer to this sound as the “heart” of the ensemble. I have also called this the “Midwest” sound. The “Midwest” sound is the sound I hear every December in Chicago, Illinois as the bands warm-up on stage. All of my students know what this is because of the recordings I play for them. I have heard many band directors say “fit your sound inside the tuba sound”. This is done easier with good quality tubas, both in number and ability. 6 The balance of any band starts with the tuba. To often today bands are not balanced well.

  • The History and Usage of the Tuba in Russia
    The History and Usage of the Tuba in Russia D.M.A. Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By James Matthew Green, B.A., M.M. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2015 Document Committee: Professor James Akins, Advisor Professor Joseph Duchi Dr. Margarita Mazo Professor Bruce Henniss ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Copyright by James Matthew Green 2015 ! ! ! ! ! ! Abstract Beginning with Mikhail Glinka, the tuba has played an important role in Russian music. The generous use of tuba by Russian composers, the pedagogical works of Blazhevich, and the solo works by Lebedev have familiarized tubists with the instrument’s significance in Russia. However, the lack of available information due to restrictions imposed by the Soviet Union has made research on the tuba’s history in Russia limited. The availability of new documents has made it possible to trace the history of the tuba in Russia. The works of several composers and their use of the tuba are examined, along with important pedagogical materials written by Russian teachers. ii Dedicated to my wife, Jillian Green iii Acknowledgments There are many people whose help and expertise was invaluable to the completion of this document. I would like to thank my advisor, professor Jim Akins for helping me grow as a musician, teacher, and person. I would like to thank my committee, professors Joe Duchi, Bruce Henniss, and Dr. Margarita Mazo for their encouragement, advice, and flexibility that helped me immensely during this degree. I am indebted to my wife, Jillian Green, for her persistence for me to finish this document and degree.

  • Background the Philippines Is an Archipelago (Chain of Islands) Comprised of Over 7,100 Islands in the Western Pacific Ocean. Or
    Beatriz Dykes, PhD, RD, LD, FADA Background The Philippines is an archipelago (chain of islands) comprised of over 7,100 islands in the western Pacific Ocean. Originally inhabited by indigenous tribes such as the Negroid Aetas and the pro-Malays. Beginning in 300 BC up to 1500 AD, massive waves of Malays (from Malaysia, Sumatra, Singapore, Brunei, Burma, and Thailand) immigrated to the islands. Arab, Hindu and Chinese trading also led to permanent settlements during by these different groups during this period. In 1521, Spain colonized the Philippines, naming it after King Phillip II and bringing Christianity with them. The Spanish colonization which lasted 350 years, imparted a sense of identification with Western culture that formed an enduring part of the Philippine consciousness, unmatched anywhere else in Asia. The prevalence of Spanish names to this day (common first names like Ana, Beatriz, Consuelo, Maria and last names as Gonzales, Reyes, and Santos) reflects this long-standing influence of the Spanish culture. The United States acquired the Philippines from Spain for 20 million dollars after winning the Spanish-American war through the Treaty of Paris in 1898, introducing public education for the first time. During this period, health care, sanitation, road building, and a growing economy led to a higher standard of living among Filipinos and the Philippines became the third largest English speaking country in the world. Above all, the US occupation provided a basis for a democratic form of government. World War II had the Filipinos fighting alongside the Americans against the Japanese. The Death March and Corregidor became symbolic of the Philippine alliance with the United States.

  • TUBA How the Sound Is Made How the Pitch Is Changed
    TUBA The tuba is the lowest instrument in the whole brass section. The tuba is used a lot in marches and other compositions where it is important to have a strong beat. Made of about 16 feet of tubing, the tuba is the largest and lowest sounding member of the brass family. The tuba uses valves and its cup shaped mouthpiece to change pitches. Tubas were originally designed to be played while marching instead of while sitting. Later the mouthpiece position was switched to the position it is now in and players can sit down and play it. A cousin of the tuba is the sousaphone, which is a tuba with a different shape. The sousaphone is used for parades and was invented by John Philip Sousa. Tuba Links http://www.iteaonline.org/ http://www.tubanews.com/ How the sound is made Sound on a brass instrument comes from a vibrating column of air inside the instrument. The player makes this column of air vibrate by buzzing the lips while blowing air through a cup or funnel shaped mouthpiece. To produce higher or lower pitches, the player adjusts the opening between his/her lips. The mouthpiece connects to a length of brass tubing ending in a bell. The shorter the tubing length, the smaller the instrument, and the higher the sound; and the longer the tubing length, the larger the instrument, and the lower the sound. How the pitch is changed The pitch of a brass instrument depends on the volume of air that is vibrating, as well as the speed at which the player's lips vibrate.
