In the few years since I started playing again on a semi-serious basis (taking lessons and the like) I've been floored by the number of opportunities I've had to play and instrument in the lower register that isn't a tuba. I'm talking about either string bass (upright or electric) or bass trombone in a jazz band or orchestra (minus the electric bass of course!). What are some of your experiences? How do you come by the other instruments, ESPECIALLY a stand up bass? How do you stay sharp on all of them? What go you started? The biggest thing for me is the chances I've had to play something meaningful with my kids.
