Title: Salvation Army Solo Repertoire for Euphonium and Piano: A Recording and Annotated Bibliography
Abstract: purpose of this project was to: (1) describe a
brief history of Salvation Army works for euphonium and piano that
are relevant to the larger euphonium repertoire, and (2) produce a
professional-quality compact disc recording of these works for
study and reference. Part I of this project is an annotated
bibliography discussing selected works for euphonium and piano
written exclusively by Salvation Army composers. Each bibliographic
entry is accompanied by a brief annotation, including information
on each composer, hymn tunes used in each work, and difficulties
encountered in performance. Part II of this project consists of a
professional-level recording of these works. recording and
bibliography is intended to serve as a reference guide for students
and teachers of Salvation Army euphonium literature, and is also
intended to serve as a pedagogical tool utilized in the development
of high school and university-level euphonium students. Five solos
and one duet with piano accompaniment were selected for this
project, works that represent a wide variety of Salvation Army
compositional styles. works also cover a wide range of
technical and musical challenges, and are appropriate for study by
both undergraduate and graduate students of music. All of the works
are currently in publication as of this writing. following
works are included in this project: The Song of the Brother by
Erik Leidzen, Ransomed by George Marshall, Ochills by Ernest
Rance, The Better World by Norman Bearcroft, Symphonic Rhapsody
for Euphonium by Edward Gregson, and Timepiece by Norman
Bearcroft.
