Re: cimbasso trombone

What about an English baritone or a German Kaiser baritone. Similar to a Wagner Tuba, but uses a trombone-sized mouthpiece and could rest on a chair.

Well, this morning I received an e-mail announcing the upgrade to Finale. Could this company be any more screwed up?

TubaJoe Seattle

I played a gig in Seattle on Saturday night, August 17th. I saw a car in the parking lot with a Washington "Music Matters" license plate: TUBAJOE. Anybody know who that is?

Re: The Metropolitan Opera -Tuba job

Annual expected earnings $150,000 – $165,000
Will that get me a nice apartment within walking distance of the opera house?

Will the Met provide me with a suitable gown to wear to the gala?

Do I need a 6/4 CC tuba?

Can I sit on stage with the singers?

Are the singers paid more than I will be?
