I play the tuba and one day we listened to this in class and my teacher said we were playing this next year as a joke. But I actually want to learn to play this! :p
@98hondaxr100 Impressive. I glanced at a free sample of the music and it's intimidating. Training my lips to play that high is the biggest challenge though.
F*CKIN' AWESOME!!!!!Real musicians still exist in America!!!!! No f*ckin turntables, no f*ckin digital drum track, no f*ckin rap beats, no computers or electronics....... Just good solid musical discapline where these musicians have honed their craft and just played a F*CKIN AMAZING SONG!!!!! Miles Davis forever!!!!!
@nigeltheoutlaw actually i do, i play tuba myself. i made region band this year and made 1st chair top band (wind ensemble) in region 9. i had my concert yesterday and played everything including my solo perfectly.
@nigeltheoutlaw what hea means by his comment "the tuba player makes the others sound like noobs (which we have determined to be calling someone a "begginer") is meant to say that he thinks the Tuba Player sounds like hes the best and the rest sound like begginers compared
@alveana14 .. Excuse me ? Just try continuing a song without the tuba there to complete your sound , tubas are the foundation of the band , without them the band falls .
uhhhhhh-mazing...realy great guys...me and my friend play this song as a duet but i play clarinet and she plays flute....we r in the 7th grade and we wanna became professionals...
@SenatorSparkman okay... i didnt mean to offend you.. but first off.. arent we all on thye same team... just because you are brass and i am woodwind doesnt matter.. we both love making music..and we are still both very nmportant instruments in a band. a band would be bad without tuba and it would also be bad without clarinets. Lets just forget about it and go on with playing music and doing what we love to do.
@SenatorSparkman Pssst, you do know that this piece was written as a WOODWIND piece and changed to a BRASS. You don't really see us whining about it. Go snuff your pride somewhere else, ok?
Luvs me the tuba. I've mastered middle range tone, but the upper register is hard to get a perfectly clear cut tone. I have some old videos of me playing if u want to check em out!
I've had the music for this for over a year, and still havent gotten around to it. I can play it, but not yet at tempo, except for the candenza, man it is fun.
I'm sorry, but that performance is not very good. He never hit the G above the staff, and he was going quite slow to get up there. And he never hit the low note at the end of the cadenza. Overall, I think this would be admirable if it was a high school or early undergrad student. But it's not...
I think I agree with you there. Although it's important to develop a good tone, I think woodwinds focus more on a good technique, sort of like piano. Just look at their parts in most literature compared to brass.
It's not brass vs woodwinds. It's that on the tuba, you have a really big column of air that you need to get started and stopped. Plus the human ear hears the low sounds less clearly. So you have to have exceptionally good "diction", compared to a high-pitched clarinet or trumpet.
Clarinet Polka is the true name of the song. There IS a Tuba Polka that was recorded by a polka band called Ampol Aires that does not resemble this song at all.
Very Cool! Awesome! Hats off to you for picking a polka to play in our multi-cultured school system. Now if you played actual American Christmas songs at the Christmas Concert and not some Kwanzaa, Jewish, Arab, Indian, Jap crap that has wrecked every Christmas Concert I have been to, I would love you even more! They are in our Country, sing our Christmas Songs!
However, after having listened to the Canadian Brass play it many times, this just doesn't stack up. The CB's is MUCH cleaner. Maybe it's because it's a live recording.
Regardless, there's no way I could play this. Kudos.
I bought this and would play it with a quintet but at my school we have horrible trumpets, but they are getting better so i might ask them if they want to play it for solo and ensemble the next year.
O.O omg dude!! it's exactly opposite to normal!!! it's usually the tuba playing the beat and the other stuff that everyone else is playing right now, and they give that to some clarinet player. YOU'RE MY HERO DUDE!! lol
True it does get easyer once you build your lungs but to say it's not hard at all is a lie. Honestly I have played all the brass instruments and tuba is the hardest air, and innotaion wise. Your techniques have to be near perfect or you sound like mush. Granted that its harder on trumpet for range and french horn for accuracy, but overall tuba is the hardest instrument I've played.
Oh yeah, tuba's hard, I was just talking about the amount of air required to get a good tone, once your lungs get fit, one can easily play for thirty seconds or more with good tone
You right it gets easyer the longer you play. Sorry, I guess I read your comment in a different way than you ment it. The only thing thats increadibly hard even after playing for years is play loud and substaining it.
