Jazz for Cows

[Bandmaster]

My brother sent me a link to this one this morning, something about a rural flash mob... You see my family has a business where we raise cows on a ranch in central California.

While watching the video a noticed some very fine tuba playing, so I figured you here would like to check it out as well. The groups the video is "The New Hot 5" led by Steve Call, the Tuba Professor at BYU. I pleasantly surprised to read that since I had bought the BBb Holton 345 that I had restored by Dan Oberloh from him back in 2005. I am not sure if anyone has posted a link to this video here already, but here goes.

This one gets posted here every few months - with over 6 million views any tuba related YouTube clip is pretty sure to have been linked on Tubenet! The update on the player info was good...

Excellent. Thank You. Has anyone seen the youtube thing with 2 tubas blowing long BBb notes and getting the gators to slide over and answer? I can not find it again.

The Ingenues were an all-girl band who performed worldwide in the vaudeville era. Here they were hired to play for the dairy herd at the U of Wis Ag school, to see if jazz could stimulate milk production.

This is a true story, nobody can make up stuff like this.

Some of those cows look fairly interested...

Females, bonding.

Actually, dairy cows in their stalls are mildly restrained with their necks in stanchions. Truly a captive audience. {As a taxpaying Wisconsin resident, I am required to know this info}
