Tuba for a double quartet

Post by TubaofGilman »

Hello everyone
I’m trying to decide whether to go with a 3/4 CC tuba or a 6 valve F bass tuba or an Eb bass tuba for our brass choir.
Any suggestions??

Bass tuba would blend better with the ensemble. Contrabass tuba would provide more "depth / support"
