Out of all of the 'pros' I've heard, you are undoubtedly the most influential tubist on my approach to the instrument. I've never heard anyone actually MAKE MUSIC on a tuba like you do, tubists seem to be obsessed with playing louder, lower, and faster than the next dude. Nobody takes the time to actually ask if what they're playing actually sounds good. You and Gene Pokorny are who I always turn to when I want to know what to aim for.

Amazing piece played by an amazing player, with the out-of-this-world Alex sound. This is one of my favorite tuba recordings ever. Thanks for posting this.

Thank you very much for your comment, have you seen my version of the Violin solo from Shindler's List, get your tissue box ready for that one.

Thanks for the compliment but those days have been over for a very long time. I am very happy with the few students I have and playing every now and then when time permits. By the way, one of my HS students just won the Army young artist competition on tuba, not to shabby.

You have great control of that thing. I'm learning to play the trumpet and one of the biggest challages is control over the instrument. Great job. Thanks for sharing.

Put on a black tie, go to a performance hall, and start raking in some dough. Seriously, Tom, you play beautifully. Do a duet with Baadsvik!

Very good. There were a few places where breaths would have been better than in the places you took them, but that's a simple mistake that I made on a regular basis when I started out. Outstanding performance and a well deserved superior.

Hi Eddee, where would have changed the breathing and why? How long have you been playing and should I get a good teacher that could help?

Beautiful as always. Maybe a tad less rubato (hard to imagine an accompanying orchestra putting up with this, not that it matters here) and a tad more connection between notes. Gorgeous sound though.
