- University of North Texas tuba professor, Donald Little's first lesson with Arnold Jacobs was also his first lesson with a tubist. While a student at Peabody, Little studied with a trombonist. At that first lesson, Jacobs encouraged Little not to worry much about the embouchure. Don described the major influences Jacobs gave him: to play vocally in a singing style. Little shared his reflections on how Jacobs' pedagogical focus changed over the years toward a more music focus, and less on the technical side of things. The other influence on Little were the hundreds of Chicago Symphony concerts he heard and how those sounds remain vivid in his memory and concept. Mr. Little shares a tuba story. The tuba is a beautiful Holton York copy that he bought from Mr. Jacobs.
Great video!So many wonderful memories from Don's studio..
I cannot wait to study with him this fall.
