Definitely an F...possibly a Yamaha...YFB-621?

The last I saw or heard, Gary played a Yamaha F.

It's been a while, but I went to undergrad school with Gary. Fine player and musician.

Too big to be a Yamaha YFB-621, in my opinion.

Sorry...it may very well be a Willson, but it is definitely an F...those that know the piece well or have perfect pitch can tell by the fingerings.

G fingered 4th, Bb fingered 1st, F fingered open. Definitely an F tuba

Does anyone know who did that arrangement or which publisher it comes from (if it's available)?

Thanks tubashaman.
I know what the piece is and have performed it before. I just wondered who did the arrangement for wind band. Any idea?
