Here is a sound check of an old 1920/1930s Bohland and Fuchs Kaisertuba in B.
I chose the Toccata Marziale by R. Vaughan Williams.

Have fun listening to 🎶🎵😃

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.

Yes, i agree. But unfortunately I was only a guest in this room. I have no access for it...😒

I am going to come back in my next life big enough to have the air to play one of those. THAT is a TUBA!

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

Thank you. The Tuba is 100 years old. Of course it's not like an modern, but quite similar 😃
