I was wondering does Roger Bobo switch to a Tenor Tuba and if he does why does he? Or is it in the music to switch?

Re: the liberation of sisyphus
I looks like he does (either the tenor tuba or the G tuba);

Roger was (is) famous for switching instruments to achieve different colors, sometimes using two or three different instruments for certain works. He was never worried about the nay-sayers...he just looked for colors..
The Sisyphus ends on a high C...).can be that he wanted to be clearer thank the euphoniums here or that his Yamaha high notes was not great in tune...
Look at all these young boys though! Anne Jelle Visser, Hendrik Jan Renes, Markus Hotzel!!!
Cool archive video (John Stevens looks the same!)
