"I think this was a Bb" this guys a idiot

Do they still make tubas like that? BTW, this guys pitch fell at the last half of the first note he played. He should not be teaching someone how to play if he can't hold a simple Bb steady.

Lifting the tuba into playing and rest positions is like a workout for us tuba players.
