Barnum and Annie are fun because the Tuba makes a difference. Another show to look at is Hello, Dolly. There is a great march "When the Parade Marches by" that is even more fun when the singer can't sing as low as Carol Channing (who can?) and sings it up a 3rd. Thereis a fun spot in the Harmonia Gardens as well. I double on String Bass, so my challange is to switch back and forth on both parts.
Jay, I just played West Side Story on Bass.. and have to agree, that would be a challange on Tuba.
