This is what every Tuba & Sousaphone player should strive for ,just pure beauty in every song they play also with precision what more could you want from a section? VSU Horsepower!!!
if u dislike dis video u do not knw nun about playn tuba or a tuba section because this is by far the best individual n collective tuba section i have heard....... keep doing yall thang.. I LOVE YALL VSU....
Wow.. Usually When I see a video where the thumbnail shows a line of Sousaphones and the title has a vague word like "explosion", I expect sloppy crap containing nothing more than eighth notes.. This was actually really cool. The chords sound awesome, dynamics went everywhere from ppp to RFL, and the technical parts were actually pretty clean and together. Dayum. Consider this blast-band sceptic proven wrong.
Love this! Wouldn't it be crazy if we had like an Allstar Tuba Battle? Each section can have their best 30 players who marched anywhere from 2000-2020. Everyone gets 4 Fanfares. At the end of the battle one big mass performance of the fanfares most schools have played. It would sound like the ground is moving having so many great players and chords so thick. Hey anything could happen. What yall think?
This is the first college video I've actually not been completely cringing at.... I mean I'm a drum corps fan where everything is so musically perfect. But they killed it, fuck the musicality, its all about power here, I am very impressed.
I know what you mean. Its super hard to hit a note that low that loud. Hopefully it will be easier to hit on the new Contras my band director is getting me and my section
Instruments are limited. If you usually take your instrument home to practice, I would suggest just taking it home that Friday before so you will have it for the weekend. Other wise, it is first come first served. Other option is to see if your band director will bring a bus of students to the event.
@dedone03 holdn yo neck make u feel like u da instrument yourself and it make u feel like u in command of da tuba dat y dey tuba player like hold dere neck
