The Complete Vocalises for Tuba
Bordogni/Jacobs
For many years tubists had to transpose the Bordogni Vocalises down one octave from the trombone editions. Ideally—and especially when playing the high tuba—the music should be played "at pitch" as it appears on the page. Many younger tubists did not know how to transpose, and many advanced players did not use the Vocalises on instruments in higher keys. Much of the benefit of Bordogni's works remained untapped.
This Encore edition, by Wesley Jacobs, is the only complete version ever published for tuba. The edition is carefully engraved to the highest quality standards. Many errors that exist in the old trombone editions have been corrected for this new book.
The Bordogni Vocalises are Essential to every tubist's library.
