About the piece:
Waltzing Matilda is widely recognized as Australia’s unofficial national anthem. The lyrics were written by poet Banjo Paterson in 1895, and the melody most commonly associated with the song was arranged by Marie Cowan in 1903. The piece tells a vivid story of a traveling worker and captures the spirit of the Australian outback.
About the instrument:
The Tuba is the lowest-pitched brass instrument and is often used for bass lines in ensembles. In this arrangement, however, it takes on a melodic role, showcasing its expressive potential. While the tuba is a non-transposing instrument in C or Bb (depending on the model), this sheet music is written in concert pitch to match its natural register.
