I'm primarily a trombone player, but I can also play euphonium, and bass trumpet. whee

I'm going to try tuba when I get into college--but trombone with always be my main love. Kinda like Domo-kun. domokun heart

I've got a question - what's the key signature for a tuba when the concert key is Bb? I can't seem to understand the tuba at all... from what I've gathered, it's in BBb, and I have NO idea what that is for concert pitch. sweatdrop And as I'm writing an arrangement, and it would be nice to have a tuba part... I kinda need to know. ^^;; Thanks in advance!

a tuba is concert pitched, I'm not sure y it's BBb, but it is, however, when a tuba/baritone/t'bone/flute/mallet is in concert Bb, it's simply Bb, 'nuff said, the concert Bb pitch for tuba is Bb...hope I helped ^__^

I'll add to that..I agree with that you said...And when the concert key is Bb then the key signature has a Bb and an Eb (unless I'm in some odd world where that only works for me eek )

Thankies muchly. ^^ I was just wondering... yeah I know what concert key is (I play flute... I know ALL about concert key XD) but I couldn't tell if tuba was in concert key or not. Thanks for the confirmation. smile

Me? I play a four-valved C tuba (NOT BBb), tenor and bass trombones (as well as valved trombone, but not very often), euphonium, and sousaphone. I want to eventually be able to play F tuba.

Does anyone know any good brands of tubas? I've heard Miraphone was pretty good. I currently am using the school's tuba, which is apparently known to professionals as a "little piggy."

Baritone is my main instrument. Once i get to marching, i will be able to play the marching baritone. Soposily, tubas have the same fingerings as baritone, so i GUESS i could play it if i tryed. sweatdrop
I can also play the valved trombone! blaugh (<-- sounds like crud, though.)
Oh, and euphonium... sweatdrop

valved trombone is a beast. it took me a while to learn how to play it.

Well, it wasn't hard for me to learn... cause it is the same fingerings as the baritone. My ombichure (<-- spelling) is too weak to get a decent sound out of that creature, though. :l In time, i hope it will work more easily with me. sad

hi im new and i play trombone
PostPosted: Thu Jan 06, 2005 8:52 pm


The only instrument I play is trombone (aside from a little fooling around with the guitar), and I've been playing it for about 5.5 years now. I want to start playing baritone, though, so I could get fingering down. I've never known anything other than the slide... I want to eventually learn trumpet, but then I'd have to learn the fingering and treble clef.
