"What could a tuba play at a recital? Is there symphonic etudes or orchestral exerpts or something?"
This was a question presented to me when I was knocking back a few refreshments with a friend of mine who happens to be a piano major. When I explained to him that today, tuba players enjoy a large and ever expanding repotoire, he was quite taken back.
It seems that tuba players know that we are getting a sizable collection of solo pieces to choose from, but most other musicians are fairly clueless.
