[Project] Tuba: "Rainbow of Love" (Epic Low Tuba Video #1)

  • [Project] Tuba is a platform that I use to communicate not just music; I also feel like music can be a healing force, and after the tension over the past few months culminating with the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021, I want to publish a video I originally created around the time of the 2020 election. "I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear." is a quote by Martin Luther King Jr. that resonates in my heart. I have been a fan of this video for years because of the message of the music, and also the immense talent in Ken Turner. I hope you find peace in this video and I hope this moment of humanity encourages us to look forward to a shared future of fellowship.

      Plus, double bass has a deeper resonance. While not lower than the tuba, theres no need to go that low. Its tone alone makes double bass a more reliable bass instrument for orchestras

      @@NevertahnProduction he’s not even talking about the double bass, he’s talking about the guy in the video, if anything you can barely hear the damn basses and not mention they’re always late, the tuba provides a much more resonant sound than them.

      @@Aduysvmncmkouyf 'Outbassing' either means being lower or sounding deeper.
      the double bass for sure has more resonance. its literally how it makes its sound, just like timpani.
      bass being late has nothing to do with the instrument and everything to do with the player.
      them not being audible only applies to tutti sections with low brass which take priority in tone. if anything, every instrument in existence has tonal priority over the string bass, however, because of that, it makes a far more fundamental sound than tuba, even though its really buried.
      the tuba is like the floor of a house. its the ground that people can see and understand. the double bass is like the foundation of the house itself. you cant see it, but its integral for the whole house to sit on, at least in an orchestral setting. even if you claim this to be untrue, string bass has superior blending capability simply because it has more favourable harmonics and sits at a lower volume. the double bass was never about being heard. it thrives in quieter sections, which music definitely has. even loud sections, they create the grand floor that tuba cant quite create themselves.
      even the function of the instrument itself allows itself to be a more reliable bass instrument for its adsr, transients, and the fact its bowed, thus longer notes.
      overall, the string bass plays a different role than the tuba. its the more reliable bass instrument. you should read some scores and notice that the tubas are normally tacet for longer than string bass is. source; i play double bass.
      but back on topic, 'outbassing' mostly means both deeper and lower. the singer can hit more impressive low notes for a voice than tuba can hit for an instrument. while an instrumentalist can hit pedal notes after a few days of practice, a singer would need to train for years to even think about hitting pedal notes. source; i played tuba and was able to hit contrabassoon Bb in about a week. i also sang bass in my high school choir. my voice was settling then, but i knew i couldnt reliably hit those low notes. even years later, i cant get much lower than E2. its not like you can buy an extension for your voice or look up tutorials to make your voice deeper. a naturally deep voice is given by chance, obviously, and being able to use that is far more impressive than pedalling on an instrument that already has that capability
