Speaking from experience--any piece marked "Tacet" would work very well...

I think it may just be that diek01 (AKA Daniel) may have been picked on in school, or perhaps forgot his medication on a few occasions.

Seek help Daniel.

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Dude, Eastman Tuba Mirum is playing an arrangement of Symphonie Fantastique right now, and we have played an arrangement of Pictures in the past. I think there are a whole lot of pieces that work well for tuba ensemble.

If anyone is in the Rochester area this coming Monday, November 20, come see a free concert of Tuba Mirum including arrangements of March to the Scaffold and Dream of a Witches Sabbath, among other awesome things!

How come "Dance of the Sugarplum Fairies" isnt on the list? It's the best tuba song ever!

Perhaps this is true for SOME tuba players.
