I have a Bb tuba too! The problem is, it's really tall, and I can't sit in the right position because my mouth can't read the mouthpiece, so I cross my legs to lower the tuba, which is NOT gonna be okay with my teacher. Any suggestions?
@ohanamaggie wow, this video is old haha. ummm well what i used to have to do was use a separate stand for the tuba that sat in front of the chair so my height wouldn't affect the position i held it at. then i would sit on the yellow pages so i could reach the mouthpiece. :)
Your musical taste and mine couldn't be farther apart, however, I love your interpretation of said music...I'd buy your CD even if you performed Lady Ga-Ga
@TheAmericanidiot9 thanks! that means a lot. this isn't even my favorite of my covers...oh and thanks for your really sweet comment on my "on my own" cover too. i was worried about that one. :)
@mckenzielovesjonas ahh thats good :) so do i!!! I do love it, you should check out blues march by philip jones brass band :) im doing the mini solo that it has in the middle of it, its an awesome solo!
@HomestarGunner it's cool, it's cool. and haha yes, there aren't nearly enough girl tuba players. but the number of comments i get about having to carry around something so big gets annoying.
from one tuba player to another, good job!! i also freaked out when kevin goes 'play it on your violin, or your tuba'!!! but i think my horn might be identical to yours.. what kind is it?
ohh miraphones are really good. mine looks like that but its a house brand.. someone made it for the store i bought it at. might be miraphone, im not sure.
haha that's awesome i play Bb tuba and im a 6th grade girl :) just started this year... got any tips 4 me?

You could also do some American Patriotic marches. You would do those very well.
