Good Morning everyone ..I'm making a York Tuba wall sculpture and want to put notes and a staff up above the sculptures bell.. What is the most famous line of music immediately associated with the tuba??? I keep thinking of those notes from "close encounters of the third kind" after the space ship landed ... Do any of you all know of something more famous?? That would instantly be associated with the Tuba?? any help would be appreciated.........BB

Mahler 1 solo
Bydlo
American in Paris solo
The Ride....

Another vote for Ride. If you are skilled (and a little sadistic) at sculpting, go for Fountains!

Only two notes required. Check out the theme from "Jaws".

I'd also vote for either Ride or Jaws (or both) ahead of Close Encounters.

I like Tchaik 4; but I don't think it is the most famous.

Except, the tuba doesn't play those two notes.

Most folks don't know the difference.

"When Yuba Plays The Rhumba on the Tuba" -- Bill Bell version.

tubby the tuba!

Another vote for Kill da Wabbit aka
The Ride

York was an important early 20th century American company... I'd go with the Gershwin for that reason...

I-IV-V-I
