FAMU Sousaphones

[euphonium929]

This is quite possibly one of the greatest fanfares of all time. It's smooth, almost creamy, and has that nice fat sousaphone sound. Not overblown or harsh, just a full, rich tone with a very slight edge.

[BigTylerJJ2]

what are the notes to the bassline?

[damdatman7]

That's my dad leading...wow. Big Pete was and still is the greatest tuba player.

[domoerigato]
