I agree with Joe's post. Gene Pokorny's CD called "Orchestral Exerpts" has a wide variety of tone concepts, based on various orchestral settings. You get to hear a little of everything.
If you don't want to wait to find a CD, our fearless board master Sean Chisham just posted his own performance of the Arutiunian Tuba Concerto. This is a fantastic example of a soloistic tuba tone.
Good luck with your exploration. Most all of us here on the board are on a similar, life long quest to develop and refine our own artistic concept of tone.
