There are a number of good resources with information about the RVW Concerto. Check with the TUBA Journal, which had an extensive article by Catelinet in the mid 80's. Also, if you can get ahold of a copy of the original manuscript, you will get an idea of how this concerto has been overly editted by publishers and Catelinet. Keep in mind too that Catelinet was not a very good tuba player (by his own ommisson), and the editions he made to the original part helped to facilitate his performance of the more technically difficult portions of the piece. This is my understanding of part of the piece's origins, based on research I conducted for a similar project in school.

Good luck,
Scott
