Not to mention unidiomatic. Williams wrote it in the idiom of the tuba, it was composed for a virtuoso tubist, and only other virtuosos can play it. Virtuoso bass trombonist can play it too, but it won't sound the same. If the first recording of this piece actually turns out to be by a non-tubist, this will be a sad commentary, no matter who the performer may be.
