Re: Army Field Band Tuba
I will get it fixed! Once I do we can post the info here
For the super motivated:
Snedecor #6
Holst 1
Toccata Marziele (sp?)
Melody Shop
And I think the cadenza of Hindemith Sonata, but might be the symphony
Thanks in advance for your interest and we will get the "official" version out shortly!

Re: Army Field Band Tuba
We just finished listening to a really impressive selection of cd's for the upcoming audition. We are mailing out acceptance and non-acceptance letters today. You should get a response by early next week. We selected 12 applicants to come and play for us live in January. Good luck to all!! It's an awesome job.

Re: Army Field Band Tuba
Looks like one could accomplish this tryout with a three octave range.
But I'm sure six would be helpful.
