The Nocturne for tuba and strings is one of a series of solo pieces written for all of the brass instruments (trumpet, horn, trombone, euphonium, and tuba). These solo pieces include an unaccompanied piece entitled Postcards, a 3 Miniatures with piano, a Nocturne with strings, and finally, a full Concerto with orchestra.
The tuba Nocturne begins with the solo tuba playing a lyrical and reflective passage, which forms the basis for much of the melodic and harmonic development of the piece. Several times an energetic allegro interrupts the mood of this opening section, and a chorale in the first allegro is developed more fully near the end of the piece. The Nocturne ends quietly and calmly.
Anthony Plog.
