Re: What did you play today?
Absolutely nothing. The tuba has been worked to death over the last month and a rebellion would have ensued had any attempts been made to play it. National Hockey League playoffs are now underway and a fair bit of horizontal rehabilitation has taken place. The tuba and Blazhevich will meet again ...

Re: This band is one of my regular repair customers.
These young musicians did a terrific job. Holst is lovely AND can be more than a little fussy. Thanks for posting this.

Re: Bridge City Brass Band Concert in Saskatoon!
A very good concert this past Sunday by our Bridge City Brass Band. The six pieces were very well received by our audience that filled fifty percent of the church. Our soloists were terrific and the acoustics in this venue always make it a tremendous performance space. Our next concert will be a ...

Re: Calgary, Alberta, Canada: Mirafone 186 5v CC auction
Hello,
Thank you of thinking of me! I live in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. It is 385 miles away from Calgary. I played a Meinl-Weston 2145 for one year nearly 10 years ago and returned to the BBb world very shortly after. I also need to "thin" my collection as well!

Re: Post Your Group and Section Photos Here
Here is our Lincoln Civic Orchestra (community orchestra that's been around for about 45 years, I believe) low brass section. I played with the group for several seasons about 10 years ago, had to leave for scheduling reasons, then started back again last season. It's grown to about 90 people ...

A great picture! I will be stealing your box idea for my own personal use. These horns are starting to get a little heavy.
