It is this "performer" being parodied in the video, but no clue who is actually playing...

The last notes of phrases come out oddly flat. Same goes for the short exclamations of one or two notes. A bit sad as the tuba line isn’t bad.

If it was meant to represent errors often heard in amateur playing, then maybe.
