Yes. The fingerings might lay best on a CC, but played on a BBb should be fine.figaro wrote:Okay, stupid question, the Performance Studies say C tuba. Can this not be played along with on a Bflat???

Stupid answer: these studies are published by de Haske, a Dutch publisher.figaro wrote: Okay, stupid question, the Performance Studies say C tuba. Can this not be played along with on a Bflat???
Since over here almost all band players read transposed parts, the main bulk of the stuff marketed locally will be the transposed BBb and Eb edtion (both B.C. and T.C.). The concert pitch version is marked "C" because it is aimed mainly at CC players over here, and to make a clear distinction between the different transposed editions.
Since the transposed editions aren't marketed abroad, the C edition is the only one you'll see.
