Bob, Wagner did not use different methods while writing his four operas wagner
tuba parts. This is not correct. He wrote them the upper pair (Bb) in Eb and
the lower pair in Bb-basso - in the score ONLY, but he wished that the single
parts were written out in Bb (tuba 1 2) and in F (tuba 3
I've been chasing Gustav, now Ike and finally hit a few moments respite.
Managed to bring my horn along working on an upcoming performance. One of
the works is in B Basso and my memory not as good in this matters as it
should be, and logistics on this evolution being what they are, I am absent

You're looking at a Bb basso horn part (In German notation B=Bb; H=B
natural). If you use the interval method (which generally works well
since Bb basso parts typically just use harmonic intervals of a natural
horn in Bb), transpose a fifth down.

Greetings -
This is one of the ways to transpose I've heard of.
Don't thing clefs. Don't think intervals.
Think in the key. You've got to know your horn
very well to do this, but it's no more difficult
than playing a part in F.
Okay.

I think this is also the way I transpose most of the time. Horn parts
are just movable-Do solfege. When
I transpose by interval. For the less common keys like Db or Ab I do a
double transposition (horn in D in E) It works for me.
I teach my pupils as many methods I can think of and leave it to them to
decide which one they find easiest - different minds think different ways.
