Bass Trombone Part to Lion King the Musical

[danpendley]

Does anyone happen to have a copy of the Lion Musical bass trombone/tuba book in PDF?

If you do and would be willing to email it to me at [email protected], I would greatly appreciate it!

Thank you!

It's a killer book. Fun, but also pretty hard one. I have it but I'm not allowed to forward it. Hopefully someone else can help with that.

Bass trombone and tuba!! Tuba double NOT a gift double. Must be able to play both instruments well. I’ll check around for a part.

I have played that several times in road shows. I would say that you need to have a double CC not a B-flat. The Bass Trombone part is fairly demanding but fun to play. Tuba parts are not hard. No trumpets. Flutes and percussion are amazing.

The last time that show came through Cleveland, the contractor actually required a CC tuba.

Our Bass Trombonist here used an E Flat (a large bell/bore version - copy of the Fletcher style Boosey) tuba. The conductor was very happy with his playing, and the notorious pedal C's in the part are a pedal on the E Flat as it is on the C. The problem on a B Flat tuba is that the note is played through a bunch of valves (how many depends on the particular horn). It is really stuffy, and especially difficult for someone who doesn't play tuba regularly. On a C, it would be the equivalent of a pedal B Flat for a B Flat instrument, while on the E Flat, it's like a pedal G (1st & 2nd valves).

The Eb is much easier to play the pedal stuff on. Wish I had used one the times I’ve played this show.
