Three of the pieces I contributed to the ABEL master list of chamber music pieces are works for tuba/euphonium quartet by John Stevens. These pieces are Power, Music 4 Tubas, and Dances. He wrote these pieces when he was working on his Masters at Yale between 1973-1975. All three of these pieces are still a standard in the repertoire. However, Power seems to be a favorite by most groups.
Power is a shorter piece (under 1:30 minutes) but it is really fast paced.
Music 4 Tubas is a 3 movement work (about 8 minutes)
I. Lively
II. Chorale
III. Rock
Dances is a single movement work divided into three parts, (Fast, Slow, Fast).
