Hello All,
First of all a happy belated New Year to all of you....except for those following the Chinese calender for you....I am right on schedule. I was just wondering how any of you that play with a tuba specific group like Tuba Quartets, Brass quintets, Dixieland groups, or any other of you got your start. I think that playing in a small ensemble such as the Tubadours or for that matter the Tubafours, would be a grat way to make a living. If even for a part time gig. I am currently playing with a local Tuba Quartet and I find that the more I play with them, the more I enjoy it. How do you get into a group that gets paid to play at different parks or events? Thank you in advance.
