-If you pick up a different tuba (in the same key) that has a different number of valves, different intonation tendencies, and requires different air, different alternate fingerings and slide pulls/pushes, that's OK; it's easy. If on the other hand you pick up a tuba in a different key from what you first learned, the fingerings are almost impossible to learn.
