I saw this video randomly through Facebook. The whole thing is worth a watch, but at 2:45 you can see footage of Simone Mantia himself ripping. I suddenly feel the urge to buy a Conn instrument or two.

Hard to tell if Mantia used the whisper bell at all.

The tubist is announced correctly as Fred Pfaff, a true legend. The written ID at the beginning is incorrect.
I had the pleasure to meet Fred in Florida, when he was in his 80's or perhaps even 90's, and had JUST quit the
Florida symphony, replaced by my NJ friend, the late Lee Richardson.
