Hi all,
Does anyone currently using this list play a French, Courtois tuba?
If so, I'd be grateful if anyone can give any insight, advice, opinion about the Courtois Tuba range, more specifically the BBb Tuba Symphonie - 182 Courtois model.
What are the pro's and con's for this instrument and how does it compare to other BBb Tuba's (e.g. Yamaha, Besson Sovereign, etc) - are the 'sounds' similar, playability same/different, any pitfalls in it's size as it's about the same size as a traditionally sized EEb Tuba, etc, etc, etc?
Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to help me out with this one, any comments are welcome!!
Regards,
Matt.
