Yes, i agree. But unfortunately I was only a guest in this room. I have no access for it...peterbas wrote: Thu Dec 12, 2024 5:52 pm This would be a nice room and excerpt to do some comparison between different tubas.
The sound starting at 20s is incredibly beautiful and clear.

Sounds great! Harder work than modern tubas or not so much?
