Information About the Tuba

The lowest-pitched of the brass instruments, the tuba makes up the concert band's bass section -- and in this case, the implicit pun on "base" is appropriate, because along with percussion, the tuba helps provide the rhythmic foundation upon which the band's music is built.

Here's a collection of pointers to various places in the Web that discuss the tuba:

• Daryl Waldrop's Tribute to the Tuba

• The Tubists Universal Brotherhood Association

• TubeNet

• The TUBA

• Tuba Talk

• The Tuba Source Book

• Carl's Home-Built Tuba Page
