When do you guys rehearse?

DaTubaKid wrote:When do you guys rehearse?

Thursday evenings, plus some supplementary rehearsals when the NABBA Competition approaches.

Usually in Northbrook; occasionally in Arlington Heights.

Bob1062 wrote:If someone was interested in auditioning and had both a contrabass and bass tuba, should they bring both? One or the other?

Currently, our greater need is for Eb Bass players. So perhaps it would be best if you bring your bass tuba now (it can be an F tuba or an Eb tuba). You can audition on your contrabass tuba at a later date.

These questions are best answered by the Music Director, Dr. Colin Holman, at colin.w.holman@sbcglobal.net.
