It was a surprise to see a tuba in this video.
It's at 18:43-18:50 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otvrS-AYq80" target="_blank
It's a pre-1918 German tuba with rotor valves; showing a glimpse of the back and from a distance...
Any guesses?
Can you identify this tuba?

Given the pretzel main tuning slide, id say an Eb.
