titanz Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 If you are thinking of small school tuba, The best tuba player is in area D. It is a 1A school, and is a kid that has made state the past few years with 5A TMEA, not ATSSB. Anyone want to guess, or are we just making shout-outs for our friends? :nowhearthis: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETxDirector Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 He meant in the whole state of texas. What was he supposed to call this thread "Best Tuba player in the area of Texas? That was my polite way of correcting his mistake. He has to make 1st chair once he tries out at the state level in February in order for anyone to claim that he is the best in the state. Qualifying for state at the area level doesn't really mean anything other than that they made one of the two all-state bands. And as someone else pointed out, that only includes A, AA, and AAA...not AAAA and AAAAA. So it is a pretty illigitament claim to "being the best" and is a bit presumptuous. Thanks to titanz for also being familiar with the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bandman08 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I was just wondering, how these Tuba players faired at All-State. Several have been talked about and yet, we don't know who was named 1st chair. Those in the know, please post results. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futfan Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 With regards to Trevin Harris, how many excellent Tuba players can also play the piccolo? Wasn't he the player that went to the sidelines during the Pitt halftime show and played a Piccolo solo? That's commendable, considering the complete difference in embouchure.

therookie13 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 He played the solo on a picolo, not the tuba, I saw their performance at NAAMB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless there was some smoke and mirrors because I didn't see anyone come to the sidelines, or he had a piccolo up his sleeve...I am not quite sure the piccoloist was Tevin Harris. Maybe someone from Pitt can set us straight? NAMMB video ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzpzW83BK7Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also played a tuba solo in the out-strain of Chicago World's Fair that was the exact same as the piccolo solo, but you couldn't hear it very well because the crowd and the rest of the band were loud.
