I have these:

In my defense… I have made major purchases from two US-based retailers (Capital Music Gear and Dillion’s), two international retailers (Thomann Music...

Here is the joint services euphonium ensemble (no Navy or Coast Guard folks this year, though). It's nearly an hour of fine euphonium playing!...

Thanks for sharing this with us Larry and great job!

Definitely prefer the sound of the Adams. The Willson has a lot of edge to the sound. It’s hard to take edge away. That’s the reason I bought...

Adams has never failed to respond to me with queries…regarding how trivial. They HAVE taken a while, of course. But I think they would eventually...

I might have a cassette of this performance. If you look in the video you’ll see there were microphone stands. Now, here’s the $2.98 question. I...

Thank you Mister Doug. Back then I worshipped Major Thomas Mack(NYSB) and Derek Kane(ISB). Two years later, I’d have the opportunity to have my...

I think today was the first time the 5 valve was played in public.

I did find "Party Piece" on the TUSAB website. They have videos of the entire Tuba/Euphonium Workshop. It didn't look like he was playing the...

I'll try to have Matt's video up some time tomorrow.

Well, in Matt's comments, there is a link to a video. I went to the video then got a message that said it had been removed by the uploader. I...
