This is very big issue in audtions. Several years ago the clear winner of the Hamburg audition was discualified after the commitee realized he was playing a CC rotary. Seriously. He now has a better gig. There is a young Italian tubist who will probably be the next tubist in the Vienna Phil who is working on a rotary F-tuba with Yahama because they have made it very clear they want ALOT of the rep on F-tuba and he hasn't found a rotary F that he can play down there for the big tunes. Once you get the gig, you can do about whatever you want. But to win, you better show up with a rotary F and BBb.
