Tuba and euphonium players are again invited to participate in one or more of the TUBACHRISTMAS concerts/events presented throughout the world. Help achieve maximum participation for your area's TUBACHRISTMAS concert. Your efforts will be appreciated by tuba and euphonium players everywhere.

 PLEASE   READ   CAREFULLY INSTRUCTIONS:  See the listing by state for the city or cities in which you wish to participate.  Each TUBACHRISTMAS event will have its own registration, rehearsal and performance schedule.
SUGGESTIONS: Bring a carrying strap, music stand or lyre; many concerts will be performed while standing.  For outside concerts, plastic mouthpieces are more comfortable if the weather is cold.  Space is limited at most rehearsal sites: if at all possible, use gig bags rather than hard cases.
