We seem to be really fortunate to have two great summer workshops for tuba and euphonium players. I attended the Oklahoma Tuba-Euphonium Summer Workshop put together by Ted Cox,Sam Pilafian, Dr. Brian Bowman and Denna Swoboda. My experience mirrors the experiences Seth Fletcher,Bart Collins and Paul Gramman had at Brevard.

As Sam Pilafian said, it is an opportunity "To do what you love for one whole week and totally immerse yourself in your music and your instrument". Being a certified public accoutant with two teenagers, I haven't been able to do that in many, many years.

If you love playing your instrument, try to block out a week next summer and attend one of these workshops. It is probably the only opportunity most of us will ever have to meet and study with some of these world renown tuba and euphonium legends.
