The tuba isn't very loud but it is the biggest brass instrument which it is incredible

There are several suggestions I’d like to (respectfully, I hope) offer to improve the usefulness of this tutorial: show a closer views of your mouth and right hand - new players MUST learn what a good embouchure looks like from the front and the side; acquiring and maintaining good hand position is essential, particularly for faster passages of music; some of the spoken instructions are not very clear - perhaps use some kind of software to point at the note you’re playing; your F is quite badly out of tune, which may be a fault with the instrument, but a new player needs to hear the notes well in tune to be able to internalise the pitch. It’s very commendable to provide a tutorial for such an under-represented instrument (which I myself enjoy playing); please don’t take offence at my suggestions; they’re meant in a spirit of musicianship. Thank you.

I watched this because I’m now a senior and I wanted to see how far I have come. I can get a pedal Ab on my tuba and can go up to a high D above the staff. To anybody starting out I wish y’all the best of luck. I’ve made most of my best friends throughout school by participating in band. I know it might be hard at times but band helps socially and it teaches you important skills like time management and discipline for school. Band kids are the best behaved kids in the school for a reason. Just keep swimming through the ocean of band and always remember to just have fun.

I think this is fine for beginning instruction. If you're just starting out on an instrument, you need to learn the basics on how you play the notes before you can develop your ear for what is sharp and flat. Once you develop your ear, you can adjust embouchure and tuning slides to develop your sound.

sousa and concert tuba have the same fingerings (assuming the key from the concert horn is the same as the sousa's key). So if you have a Bb concert horn, your first 5 would go 0 13 12 1 0. With a Bb sousa it's the exact same thing, so it would go like 0 13 12 1 0. Hope this helps!

Can we contact Allison today? This seems to be the only one of her vids with comments still enabled. My last chance. Seems to be no other avenues... I need a video on what to do after 'the first five notes' on the trumpet. Allison's vid was the only one I've seen that got me going well on the first five notes. It was the only one that clearly showed she was blowing down across the lower lip. Perhaps that was the big thing. I don't know. But then playing the notes along with her worked well, too. It looks like Allison stopped about 5 years ago. Hopefully this plaintive little message will get out there to someone who knows what's doing and hopefully we can get more help from Allison ?

I'm a bit late, but basically you can't do anything special to do long tones on a Bb without circular breathing . You just have to make your lungs accustomed to breathing into the horn and how much air it takes. Hope this helps.

I can hit these notes but it's a completely different valve combination. I think your tuba goes deeper than mine. I don't have that large tube that doubles up next to the highest large tube as you look at it. but it's a 3 valve and i thought it was a 3/4. Perhaps it's the next higher tuba up in the range.

its a tuba. its pretty hard to get a consistant note when you have to blow in it with a wider mouthpiece. tubas usually only sound consistant in ensembles. unless you're like an expert or something, its normal for tuba players to wobble the notes a little. plus, beginners shouldn't have to worry about playing a perfect consistant note anyways
