Re: Mit Wagner Tuben
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.

Appreciated the sectional videos, I have fond memories of playing the Bruckner Symphony cycle with Saratoga decades ago.Heavy_Metal wrote: ↑Fri Nov 29, 2024 7:15 pm Anyway- very well played.

Question: maybe better to start a new thread, but anyone here have compare/contrast experience playing the 197/2 -vs- the 195 Fafner ?
pfft (yes, that's for you)
