Yellowbird features the sensational tuba virtuoso Aaron Tindall in an album that defies categorization. Tindall's latest recording includes jazz pianist (Grammy-nominated Shelly Berg) on the ballad, "The Peacocks"; Claude Bolling's "Suite for Cello & Jazz Trio" in Tindall's breathtaking transcription for tuba; and a swinging rock band accompaniment to Fred Tackett's "Yellowbird". Prepare to be entertained and astonished!
This new recording features two tuba concertos (by Gunther Schuller and Dana Wilson), David Lang's Jimi Hendrix homage, for electric tuba, narrator and chamber orchestra, and a tuba solo by Karlheinz Stockhausen. Tuba virtuoso Aaron Tindall has been a leader in the performance of new music for tuba, and is currently a professor of tuba and euphonium at the University of Miami's Frost School of Music.
This is My House is the second solo tuba recording from Aaron Tindall. An album of ‘premieres’, Tindall displays a wide-variety of new pieces and some older favorites in a completely new way. Definitely a recording that you’ll want to listen to over-and-over.
