One-Size-Fits-All Tuba Recommendation

Rate this Entry
I recently asked a number of top professional tubists in the U.S. for some advice on behalf of a student. The student wants an E-flat tuba that is large enough to use in an orchestral setting but small enough to use for solos, jazz, and chamber ensembles. I got some great advice, and it boiled down to two "best" choices: the Willson E-flat and the Besson E-flat. The Willson got a couple more votes, but both horns were highly regarded.
