Can anyone point me towards some recordings in which the tuba player used a MW Fafner?
Thanks!

I believe that any of the recent recordings of the Vienna Philharmonic will most likely feature Paul Halwax on his hand made rotary Fafner.

There's a short YouTube video of two guys playing a Fafner and Fasolt (? do not remember) in an orchestra playing some Russian piece with like a billion Wagner tubas.
Ah ha!

I think that in most cases he would play the Wiener F tuba, so you would more specifically have to look for new recordings of Kontrabasstuba-music.Roger Lewis wrote:I believe that any of the recent recordings of the Vienna Philharmonic will most likely feature Paul Halwax on his hand made rotary Fafner.

Yasuhito Sugiyama uses one on the big German stuff; he may be using it on the Bruckner 6 DVD, IIRC. He sounds awesome on it, and it's my favorite horn he plays.

That's a Paul Halwax on a Fafner and Christoph Gigler playing a 5/4 Rudy Meinl. The piece is Prokofiev's "Ivan the Terrible." The best part of the vid is the trombone reaction to the tuben...Bob Kolada wrote:There's a short YouTube video of two guys playing a Fafner and Fasolt (? do not remember) in an orchestra playing some Russian piece with like a billion Wagner tubas.
