Zachariah Spellman - Jacobsen: 24 Preludes For Tuba & Piano

The expressive and melodic "24 Preludes" by Julius Jacobsen are presented by Digital Victrola through the talents of San Francisco Opera's tubist Zachariah Spellman and internationally recognized pianist Karen Hutchinson. Julius Jacobsen was a trombonist and composer/arranger born in 1915 in Denmark where he was a soloist with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra. Although his "Tuba Buffo" has been recorded numerous times, the 24 Preludes, composed in 1979, have rarely been heard.
