Sadly, there are no stores in Miami that even stock tubas, let alone sell them. In fact, Miami no longer has even a professional symphony orchestra. Your best bet to get connected with low brass players in the area would be to seek out the University of Miami or maybe the schools I teach at, Florida International University or Lynn University. I wish I could tell you differently but this area has proven to have little interest in the fine arts as of late. Literally all the performing arts organizations are either bankrupt (two orchestras and one conservatory of music so far) or teetering on the brink of bankruptcy. My advice is to enjoy the lovely weather and beautiful beaches that are here while you visit. Have a safe and enjoyable trip!

My opinion for what it's worth...
