We are delighted to announce the launch of wagner-tuba.com in German. We have been working on the idea for some time and hope it will allow us to present the Wagner Tuba to a much wider audience.
Why German? Well, it was German composers and German instrument manufacturers who were responsible for the development of the instrument. Also, many of the current, best Wagner Tuba players in the world are German or play in German orchestras. So it seems only proper that we share our site’s information in their language.
Here are the Berlin Philharmonic Horns playing extracts from Bruckner and showing their skills on the Wagner tuba.
