UNG Tuba-Euphonium Quartet

Abstract

The UNG Tuba-Euphonium Quartet would like to present a performance at the Georgia Undergraduate Research Conference at the University of North Georgia's Gainesville campus, November 2-3, 2018. The Quartet consists of two tubas and two euphoniums. In addition to tubas and euphoniums, we often incorporate percussion into our performances. The UNG Tuba-Euphonium Quartet consists of the top two euphonium players and the top two tuba players from Dr. Adam Freys studio.

The quartet plays a wide variety of music, ranging from classical transcriptions, to original compositions for Tuba-Euphonium quartet, and even jazz. Members of the quartet often create their own arrangements/compositions which we perform as well. The quartet has performed at a numerous event around the University, such as 'OctubaFest', 'Spring Euphoria', and the Dahlonega campuses instrumental honors recital. In addition to these performances, the UNG Tuba-Euphonium Quartet regularly performs at local churches and last January, the quartet performed at the Georgia Music Educator in Service Conference in Athens, Georgia. The quartet will be competing in the quartet competition of the International Tuba-Euphonium Conference (ITEC) at the University of Iowa this upcoming May.
