Ok. I'll be the dummy here and ask the obvious: "Why not play the 2nd euph part....................on a euph? In my tuba quartet, I switch back and forth all the time between my 5/4 (Wick 1L) and my euph (Bach 6&1/2 AL). It's fun, and I don't seem to have any problem switching between mouthpieces.

You're already using an F, rather than a CC or BBb. Isn't that enough 'cheating' already??

So...What do you guys in New Orleans mostly use...CC or BBb?

Oh, trust me...listing my city's official slogan was done purely tongue-in-cheek. It used to be "The City that Reads," which was just as bad. There's a new one coming out soon, but it's so catchy, I've already forgotten it.
