I know in your post that you want suggestions of recordings with GOOD orchestral tuba playing. My suggestion is one more for studying the pieces mentioned by the numerous posts above. Listen to every recording you can get your hands on. If it is in the $1.00 bin at Wal-Mart, it might not be the best playing you can buy, but it does show common problems that can arise within a piece. Comparison of the these "weaker" recordings to a great recording can be a huge educational experience. I am by no means saying that you shoudn't buy the recording with great tubists in the orchestras, but I feel that much can be learned from the weaker recordings. As I said. . . Listen to EVERY recording you can get your hands on.
