Re: Stepping Back: 2nd, Bass, or Alto/Contra-Alto??

I have played Contra Alto exclusively since I restarted my musical "career" about 15 years ago. In addition to the several parts on which you can double listed by Wes, I sometimes also pick up tuba or string bass parts.

There is a website that has a nice commentary on the role of Contra Alto in the band setting, with some parts for commonly played pieces written by the poster specifically for the instrument:

Good luck with your new role, whatever you decide.
