Resilient Roots

Resilient Roots: A Progressive Collection of 12 pieces for beginning to intermediate tuba and euphonium.

Diversify the Stand is thrilled to announce our partnership with Dr. Meredith Q. Fuller on our next commissioning project: Resilient Roots!

Resilient Roots is a collection of 12 solo and piano compositions for beginning to intermediate tuba and euphonium.

The project commissions six living composers from diverse backgrounds to create a progressive series of solos, designed to support skill development at the very first stages of learning – gradually preparing students for more challenging levels of repertoire. Through accessible and engaging solos, students can develop foundational skills, build confidence, and grow their musicality.

We would love your support to make this collection a reality! If you’re interested in supporting this project, consider being a sponsor to promote diverse and accessible music.
