Good guy ended up aging out on mello in 2007 I believe Mello to tuba. Holy cow. Good for him. Not me. I never played anything heavier than a French Horn bugle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Zingali stated in a 1984 Clinic that he tried to do the most exciting thing at the start to get everyone on board and grab their interest and attention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet there’s a lot of tuba players out there with regret today 🙂 Tubas just don't grow on trees....especially the ones who really know the instrument well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
