As @the elephant pointed out when he shared the Pandemic Duos a couple years ago, the trick is indeed to find a bored horn player who wants to play duets with a bass clef instrument.
Nevertheless, I was lucky enough to get some practice time with such a person today, we read several things from the book, and they were great! This was the first time I'd looked at them in quite a while, so also the first time I used an F tuba. My not enormous rotary F with a Shallowberger mouthpiece was a really nice match with the horn, and we had a great time going through these delightful arrangements. Thanks again, Wade, for making those available.
