Two tuba players share a conversation on the way to performing a concert.
This past weekend our community band played in a festival a few towns down the road. Walking through the fresh snow into the facility I noticed these two. Remembering Cee’s challenge, I fumbled with my gloves, found the camera in all the stuff I was carrying, and got the shot.
I thought it was cute to see two tuba players deep in conversation, casually hauling their giant instruments along almost as an afterthought. Turns out they were our musicians, and we all had a fabulous time playing music together a few hours later.

Aw, this one brings back memories…not of playing tuba, but of being in the band. I miss it so!

I played clarinet all through college (played piano, too, and some sax in high school). Domer started four years on percussion and switched to trumpet, which he played through college. We’re TOTAL Band geeks!!

You should find a community band near you and play again. You’d be amazed what your fingers and brain remember if you don’t get in the way.

Funny. One of the “related” blog posts listed at the bottom is titled “Dancing the Danzon” and that’s what we played Saturday this year too. How did WordPress know from this post?
