Got that right! I had the opportunity to meet, work with and hang out with Roland at ITEC in Regina. He played not only his solo recital (which was incredible!!) but the solo part for a piece he wrote for STUBA (for solo tuba, tuba octet and narration). He's a great composer as well as a player and a really cool guy! Emily Harris asked him on Thursday to write a fanfare (to be played by STUBA) for the presentation of TUBA's lifetime achievement presentation to Peter Hirsbrunner, Gerhard Meinl and Walter Hartley on Saturday...he said OK without blinking an eye and finished it the next day. He's definitely the next big wave in the tuba world along with guys like Markus Hützel and Tamas Keleman. I love the way they're pushing the musical envelope forward.
