WTB Rotary horn

Post by Salazarsam33 »

Looking for a rotary c tuba, I absolutely love my tuono but I’m in need of something smaller since I’m mostly playing chamber and not orchestra or sinfónica band music.

Those instruments are pretty much the same size. Different wrap.

The PT6 is considered a 4/4+ or 5/4 tuba. It is similar in size to your Tuono, considered a 5/4 tuba. IMO, you aren't gaining anything; if anything, you would be getting a tuba with an even broader tone, as the PT-6 is used by some players in orchestra. If you want a rotary, but want to stay with BBb, there are several out there to choose from, all the way from a "standard" 4/4 Miraphone 186 to several smaller tubas by other manufacturers. I use my 186 for everything from quintet to symphonic concert bands. Were you by chance thinking of a PT-3 or PT-4 instead?
