Dr. Doug Bristol's composition reviewed

Dr. Doug Bristol's Fantasy for Euphonium and Orchestra was recently performed at the International Tuba and Euphonium Association Conference at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music. The performance was reviewed by Jerry Young (University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire) in the Fall 2008 ITEA journal. Below are the highlights of that review:

"Every serious euphonium player should find this work and study it."

". . no audience exists that would not fall in love with this work."

"It is a major work that I hope to see on concert programs with major orchestras."

". . a very special and worthwhile artistic production."
