Hi folks,

My fiancee has expressed an interest in playing the tuba. She is a classically trained flutist and would like to start learning to play tuba. She has taken a methods class on BBb tuba, but she didn't find the experience very rewarding. Today she tried out my F tuba and found that it was easier for her to hold (she is 4'11") and to play. I gave her an hour lesson and she seems to really like it. Has anyone else ever "started" someone out on F tuba...rather than BBb or CC?? I would like some feed back on the pros and cons of this.

Thank you,
Todd Morgan
