Comprehensive program notes.
Written by the composer of each piece, often gives their insights into the origin and motivation for writing the piece. Useful for any tuba soloist from Senior Recital to professional performance, this is the sort of background audiences appreciate. I wish I'd had it when writing my program notes.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
