First, I will confine my comments to the realm of MUSIC.

RE:KENTON. Yes, that band "used a tuba."
Was it featured prominently? No
Were the parts innovative? Not especially.
Did it take a monster musician to play them? Nope.

RE: Sauter-Finnegan
Answer to all three questions is YES to a large extent.

For what it's worth, King Oliver's band "used a tuba."

I never claimed to speak gospel; I ask readers only to ponder the issue of equipment. Musicians whose boots I'm not qualified to lick ask the same question. Go, for example, to yeodoug.com if my 2 euros are not enough.
