That's a very typical tubist remark. Every tubist I know thinks the same thing - can whip one out and automatically gain virtuosic musical ability. I never said the euphonium was a particularly difficult instrument to learn, and it is not particularly wise to insult one's instrument of choice - regardless of how simple it may seem. As far as a doubler, I suppose you're right - proficiency does not matter that much. At any rate, if euphonium is supposed to be easy, then maybe I (and several other sprouting euphoniumists) should take up basketweaving instead, eh?
