For Tuba Quartet (EETT), this set is perfect for any developing ensemble:

Good ensemble playing is characterized by uniformity of pitch, articulation, tone color and dynamic gradation, all sustained within flowing pulse. These canonic selections are offered to train this musical ideal. As the subjects are introduced, use your imitative skills to create a spirit of sharing and conversation. Wherever possible, play off the full scores, so you may glimpse deeper into the composer’s mind. Remain mindful of a fundamental principle promoting clarity - when your part is static, it is generally not as significant as the moving lines.
