Which Music Medals books should I choose?

Music Medals is a separate, teacher-led assessment available in the UK only. The Brass 1 Options Practice Book supports treble-clef euphonium, while the Brass 2 Options Practice Book supports bass clef. Choose the ensemble book for your Copper, Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum level and agree suitable parts with your teacher.

For graded exams, check the official baritone and euphonium information or use Syllabus Finder.

Do Practical and Performance Grades need the same books?

Both routes use listed repertoire. Practical Grades assess three pieces, scales and arpeggios, sight-reading and aural tests. Performance Grades require a four-piece programme and have no separate technical or aural tests. Check your route in Syllabus Finder and buy an additional own-choice score only if you need it.

How do I choose euphonium books for my grade?

Choose your grade and exam route in Syllabus Finder. Check the publication, edition and clef for each piece before ordering. A book’s grade band helps you find suitable practice music; it does not mean every piece is on your exam syllabus.

Is there a dedicated Euphonium Exam Pack?

Our euphonium range offers repertoire anthologies and separate technical books rather than a dedicated Exam Pack. Shining Brass and Brass Mix include selected repertoire for Grades 1 to 5. For Grades 6 to 8, follow the publication named for each chosen piece in Syllabus Finder.

Should I choose Shining Brass or Brass Mix?

Both series offer varied brass repertoire. Book 1 covers Grades 1 to 3 and Book 2 covers Grades 4 and 5. Choose the publication named for your selected piece, or explore either series for lessons and performance. Neither contains the entire euphonium syllabus.

Browse Brass Mix, Book 1 and Book 2 if you need those scores.

Which Shining Brass piano accompaniment do I need?

The brass part books and piano accompaniment books are sold separately. For euphonium, choose the B flat piano accompaniment for the matching Shining Brass book, whether you read the treble-clef or bass-clef part. Check your part and ask your teacher if you are unsure. E flat and F accompaniment editions are for other playing pitches.

Which scales and sight-reading books match my clef?

The books above are the bass-clef Baritone, Euphonium and E flat Tuba editions, in Grades 1 to 5 and Grades 6 to 8 bands. Treble-clef euphonium players use the Trumpet and Brass Band Instruments (treble clef) editions. Scales and sight-reading are sold separately; check your grade and current Practical Grade requirements before choosing.

Do baritone and euphonium use the same books?

Baritone and euphonium share our graded repertoire lists, and some books support both instruments. Match the clef, grade and named edition to your own preparation. Tuba has its own repertoire lists, even where a technical book or anthology supports several brass instruments.
