If you don't speak German, there are time links in the description to the excerpts. These guys are good!

Yes.
This forum made me aware of that channel some time earlier this year.
I especially enjoyed the Elektra excerpts. Wasn´t familiar with that music.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Anyway- very well played. According to the video notes, the actual tuba is a Meinl-Weston 197/2 BBb, and the "Wagnertuben" are Alexanders.

And you can set up YouTuba to translate the closed captioning to English, though it's hit-or-miss at times.
