I am bringing a truck of tubas to the KMEA in Kansas City.
I'll bring as many as I can and will be driving in Tuesday. I will have BBb's, CC's, EEb's and F's. A good variety and euphoniums too.

See you there. Look for the Brook Mays booths and the TUBA STORE sign.
TMEA was a gas and the new Miraphone piston 191 prototype was an absolute amazing tuba. WOW. Couldn't put it down. Played it for 45 minutes on Wednesday when i got there.
They had a 5 valve there and the bore is .840 on the piston, yes .840 and it works.
It will come as a Pro model only in 4 ro 5 valves and with two leadpipes.
An amazing BBbthat does it all and the freest blowing BBb I have ever played in the pedal range. Soft is way to easy to play as well.

Applause to Miraphone on designing another great new tuba.

CC's on both the rotor and piston to come, but they will be later, with the rotor sooner.

I love my job and this industry.
