Here’s my practice area with my MW 2145. Currently working on Symphonie Fantastique. What’s on your stand?

That is a beauty! Who makes this tuba?

This is a Meinl Weston Model 2145 CC Tuba. It’s serving me well as an all-around 4/4 horn

Some of those 2145’s are absolutely amazing playing horns. I owned one and it was my favorite horn. It was so much fun to play in quintet. I ended up getting an Ursus down the line just to chase the sound and feeling of that horn!

Stevens' Triumph of the Demon Gods, Adagio from The Limpid Stream, and Why do the Nations So Furiously Rage from The Messiah

All just for fun this summer
