(Others may also answer, of course)
In a message below you said "Tubas require much more air than trumpets because they are played lower. A tuba Bb two octaves below a trumpet requires four times the air, or something like that"
I'm not disagreeing with you, since I have no idea, but I'd like to ask you your own question: "Do you have any data?"
The notion catches my attention and I'd like to learn more.
Any thoughts?
