Hello! This week's number is the Billy Blowhard Concert Polka, published by Celian Kottaun in 1909, and was published as a solo for Eb tuba, Bb tuba, trombone, or Baritone. My version of the solo is performed on the Eb tuba. This music is public domain, as it was published before 1926, and is available at bandmusicpdf.org. If you download this, you need to know that it has several misprints in the band parts, including the tuba solo. If it doesn't sound or look right, it might not be right, but this is a good showpiece for any low brass player, and is fairly difficult, but worth the effort. I had a copy of this when I was a kid, but never got to perform or rehearse it with accompaniment, so this is the first time I have heard this. If you want to play a tuba solo with your local town band, now would be a good time to download your own copy, and yes, it is a free download. Please enjoy my performance; please like, please share, and please subscribe to my channel. Thank you. Brassman Bart
