    Good to be back on this forum!

    Dear euphonium and tuba aficionados,

    Just a quick hello from this new member, after an absence of several years from this very nice forum. Hope you all do well, and I am looking forward to read, learn and share plenty of euphonium goodies.

    Warm regards, and stay safe!

    Hi John. Yes, Suriname is for sure a real melting pot of cultures, and a great place to live. Euphonium resources are rather scarce unfortunately, as we are only about 15 active euphonium and baritone players in the whole of Suriname. Sousaphones are used in our local kaseko-style music though, so maybe that mighty instrument is my next challenge :-).

    If you are looking for any instruments, check out Wessex. They make some really nice tubas/sousaphones for much less cost than many others. Also euphoniums, trombones, etc. They are at:

    www.wessex-tubas.com

    I will have to check out kaseko-style music, not sure I know what that is.
