This site is intended to be a valuable resource for tuba and euphonium / baritone. You will find special articles for baritone / euphonium and tuba on this site that are not available anywhere else.

We also host other sites of interest to low brass players, including the official website for America's Premier Large Tuba-Euphonium Ensemble, Symphonia (founded by R. Winston Morris) , and a site with helpful advice and examples on taking military band auditions.

Also, as a web programmer, I have just completed a new comparision guide for woodworkers to use. It will let you search and compare among various models of woodworking routers. You can learn quite a bit there, and there is a link to learn more about (or buy) any of the models listed. See it on the Woodworkers Journal site.
