- David Werden performing Herbert L Clarke's "Bride of the Waves." This was part of the Coast Guard Band's CD "Coast Guard Bicentennial" published in 1990. A solo/piano version of this is available (treble clef solo part) here: www.sheetmusicp...
A graduate of The University of Iowa, Mr. Werden was the euphonium soloist with The United States Coast Guard Band for more than 20 years. He has performed throughout the United States, as well as in Canada, England, Japan, and the former Soviet Union. Through FM and TV broadcasts, his solos have been heard in dozens of countries around the world. He is a recitalist and clinician, and has performed at local, national, and international symposiums. He was a member of The USCG Band Euphonium/Tuba Quartet, the Atlantic Tuba Quartet, and the Classic Brass Band. He previously taught at the University of Connecticut and is listed in Marquis' Who's Who in American Education.
His efforts to expand the role and recognition of the euphonium led the British magazine Sounding Brass in conjunction with the American publication Euphonia to name him "Euphonium Player of the Year" in 1980. He is the first American awarded this honor. In 1981 he was elected to the post of Euphonium Coordinator for the International Tuba-Euphonium Association (formerly called Tubists Universal Brotherhood Association: T.U.B.A). In 1987 he was appointed to the Honory Board of Advisors of ITEA. His many solo performances and his efforts to expand the role of the euphonium in music earned him the prestigious Coast Guard Commendation Medal. He has also been awarded two Coast Guard Achievement Medals, the Coast Guard Special Operations ribbon, two Coast Guard Unit Commendations, and three Coast Guard Meritorious Unit Commendations. In 1993 he was inducted into the Pi Kappa Lambda honors society.
He has published articles in Euphonia magazine, The Instrumentalist magazine and the T.U.B.A. Journal. He is the author of The Blaikley Compensating System, Scoring for Euphonium, co-author with Denis Winter of the Euphonium Music Guide, and a co-author of the Brass Player's Cookbook. He compiled and edited a series of papers by Arthur Lehman into the book The Brass Musician. He has also published over four dozen arrangements for a variety of solo instruments and ensembles. His website, www.dwerden.com/, has become a favorite of euphonium players everywhere.
Since moving to Minnesota he has performed with Symphonia (America's Premier Large Tuba-Euphonium Ensemble), the Minnesota Orchestra, the Sheldon Theater Brass Band, was a special guest artist at the International Euphonium Institute, and has been heard on live national broadcasts of A Prairie Home Companion.
From 5:24 to the end.... The cleanliness is so unbelievable!!!! Master Werden, you are my hero.
Dave Werden is the man!!....I met him once....there was this light (ok ok but it was cool)....I still cant explain it he was very calm and had military bearing. I model myself after his style, and he helped me get into my local city band with some great advice on the boards. thank you sir.
I would love to see him and david childs do a duet....could the gods align and agree to let that happen??? I hope so.
Absolutely perfect!
Dave Werden's version is the benchmark...... period. I style my own playing of this piece after his. Do that, and you will be better for it.
This is probably the best version of this song that will ever be. Put it in the records. The Coast Guard put it all in on this one.
Save this for future generations, please.
a fine rendition of this cornet gem by clarke transcribed for euphonium - it's a keeper - thanks dave werden/uscgb
Playing this my senior year! Only Sophomore now. I'm really REALLY looking forward to this!
Just do a search for this on RUclips: Trumpet Articulation (6): Double Tongue
It will help you get started.
except the parts I believe you are referring to are triple tongues....
This is a really beautiful performance. Many thanks.
This is truly an outstanding solo to play! I'm in 10th grade and I got a straight superior rating at District Solo and Ensemble. My State Solo and Ensemble Festival is in March, so I'm hoping to receive a superior at the state level! :)
Good luck in March!
Daverhan Well?
Nicely done. Nice sound and very cleanly played.
Oh, and VERY nice!
very beautiful and expressive playing, thanks for posting
The only recording on youtube that Mr. Clarke would approve of.
I'll be playing this solo my freshman year. I've been working this up for a few months
Good luck on your performance!
Thank you! i have until February
Learning this solo as a Junior. I'm using David as a backup to make sure I'm playing it right. Lol
I just added a link to purchase the music in the description above. Just click the "Show More" link and you will see it. It was originally a cornet solo, so the solo part is treble clef.
How do I get started on the triple tounging?
i played this solo it is really fun and one of a kind the triple tonguing kicks your ass though haha
Could someone show me how to double tongue on Euphonium?
When you tongue a note use the syllable DA and then quickly after use the syllable GA. You need to use a good amount of air and move the tongue really fast.
Where could I buy this piece
How do you tongue because I've been playing baritone for aa few years and I'm play this next week and the places where I need to tongue sound like mush
Codelyok13 Live So how did it go?
To +toastyspark all u have to do is pretend like your saying "tugutugutugu"
playing this solo in 8th grade :)
It's people like you that piss us all off, unless you are lying and or bad at it.
+Nahtanoj He is playing it. He isnt making music out of it.
+Brian Hernandez oh ok, makes sense
played this in 1st grade :P
this isn't really true. some kids in 8th grade have already been playing for years and practice a lot.
