Great new euphonium work

Steven Mead has premiered a new work for euphonium and symphony orchestra that seems to become a classic.

You can read about it here and also download it (1, 2 and 3 movements) and hear some contemporary euphonium playing at its best. I am humbled and will stay in my "neighbourhood" (Salvation Army music, Brass Band) for quite some time. It would be great fun to try something a bit easier with symphony orchestra...

Thank you Steven - very, very good indeed.
