WELCOME
Since the tuba is so large and low, it is hard to know if you are playing the right thing when first starting out. This website is designed to be a beginning tuba player's personal trainer. Here you will find videos demonstrating how to play and take care of your instrument, and songs for you to play along with. Just like any sport, the more you train, the better you will become. Good luck and get after it!
