As an 1st trombone player in my younger days, I respect the hell out of my sousaphone, tuba, and euphonium brothers and sisters. We've been starting to need more and more of the big guns to fight in the musical wars these days. Seeing a good fight like this between sousaphones is rare, but the hype is like no other.

I was their had fun my band battled Hillside. ST.Aug sounded great

Goosebumps! Love this!

I love how I listened to this exact same video more than 4 years ago. Before my 6th grade year ended. Because I was going to switch from baritone to tuba in middle school. And I was just interested on what it’d be like. And man I was intrigued so much by the way they played these tubas. This video literally led to so much success through my Middle/Highschool band career. Well not career.. but ya know. But… that second song bro!! I learned how to play after I started with tuba all those years ago. Still haven’t stopped playing it, here I am in 11th grade. And still in marching band, AND a section leader of 2 underclassmen below me. In conclusion… this video helped me love the tuba more than I did back then… Btw loved when the second band played the first time. That’s the song I learned to play.(@ 2:51)Thanks for your time 🧍🏼👌🏻
