I echo everything Richard said. This is a great peice of music with a great tuba part. Please notice the order in which I placed those statements. It can be very easy to overdo the part and mess up the ensemble. Be very careful of the little lyrical solo at the end of the piece. You will spend a good amount of time pulling 5or6 G's with the technical stuff, especially the LOUD pedal D required, then you are faced with this soft and slow rising solo. You should count your blessings and say thanks to the conductor, this is a good blow.
