During a quintet rehearsal, we worked our way through our usual baroque lit to "I'm getting sentimental over you." The 621 just wouldn't do it, and I played the Holton. I needed to swing, and the 621 was just too tight-a$$ed.

But last time we rehearsed, we played the swing stuff earlier, and Lo! the Yamaha was capable of soul. You just have to keep it away from that Bach stuff first.

That said, I do not name my tubas after girls. I do not name my bicycles after girls, either (a popular thing for triathletes to do)--not even the ultra-sexy Italianate beauties.

And I do not sit around staring lustfully at my tubas (or bicycles). No. Absolutely not. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.
