John Stevens’ Elegy

OVERVIEW

Elegy was composed for the International Tuba Euphonium Association (ITEA) Journal Gem Series, and was published in the Fall, 2004 Journal, Volume 32, No. 1. It was written for either solo tuba or solo euphonium.  
 
While an elegy is usually sad or melancholy, this one develops more into a sense of hope.
