Grundman Tuba Rhapsody

Post by Geotuba »

I played this piece yesterday with the Markham Concert Band. Despite having been playing the Tuba in Bands and Orchestras since the 70s I only started seriously practicing about 18 months ago and this is my first public performance as a soloist.

Video is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R32CKTYKQi8" target="_blank

Constructive comments are, of course, welcome, so I can get it better next time :D

I am, of course, painfully aware of the obvious points :wink:

Well thanks Al - all your encouragement, guidance and sage advice were invaluable in preparing for this :tuba:



(But how was the video editing :?: - that's what I really wanted to know :P )

Just wanted to give this one a bump to get this back to the top for Hugh.

Enjoy the clip everyone!
