It is a well known that Verdi quite preferred the Hobophone over the tuba or even the vaunted cimbasso. Good to see they are available again for the traditionalists. Critics roundly criticized Steven Spielberg for not showing E.T. attempting to hobophone home. Do you hobophone?

Took the 14 year old to see Scrap Arts Music out at FermiLab a couple of weeks ago. They were extraordinary and I would encourage anybody to go see them if you get the chance. She thought it was the best performance she has ever seen and I've taken her to see a lot of varied groups. They had more energy than a high energy particle accelerator can achieve! :lol:
