I hear a sweetness and purity of tone that are not often heard in players from other teachers. Bill Bell was the primary teacher of my primary teacher (George Black) as well as Harvey Phillips, Don Harry and several others with similar tones. Harvey Phillips, however, once told me that, as great a tuba players as Bill Bell was, he was a better musician. Bell managed to communicate that above all else.
