Wessex Tubas had an incredibly successful week at Frankfurt Musikmesse this year with larger booth and more visitors than ever. Two great concerts by Tubalate performing on Wessex and interest in the range from around the world.
We were also delighted to supply one of Germany's top orchestral tuba players with F cimbasso, Bubbie F travel tuba and Luzern BBb tuba. We understand the Luzern will be played with the orchestra for some works where he wants lighter tone and more agility than his Fafner.
Video of some of the Tubalate concerts I will post on YouTube once have time to edit and upload. For now enjoy these photos.
The Wessex Tubas booth
The prototype TB162 bell front BBb tornister gets a try. The sound from that is amazing. Probably double the projection of the regular Mighty Midget, although of course not so compact for travelling. Which is better depends on intended use.
