That's a sad thing. Truly one of the "unsung" heros of the tuba world. What a player!

They forgot Bydlo.

I am convinced that 90% of the problems with rhythm, tone, intonation, articulation, technique, and overall prowess on the horn are related to air issues.

G is still the highest note of the audition. They aren't cutting you much slack, just a half step.

In some orchestras Bydlo isn't the responsibility of the tubist. I don't know if that's the case in the NJSO, but not seeing it on the list or in the VERY NICE FREE excerpts download that they a providing to anyone who cares to click on their link leads me to believe that they may feel it's not a criteria they wish to consider when auditioning their new tubist...

Gee, real world common sense in an orchestra. How refreshing.

That was my way of saying that they forgot to throw in the kitchen sink, too.
