Thanks for the story. I expect the hero-for-a-week, bum-for-life situation is true in most pro orchestras. I know it's true in the engineering world.

The picture of the Alex reveals it to be somewhat larger than my memory of the Miraphone Kaiser Baryton that I played next to in the TubaMeisters for a while. What sort of mouthpiece did you use? Is the Alex hard to manage (centering or intonation-wise) on the log G#/B oompahs in the middle of the movement?
