While this is a subjective thing, and I have far to many favorites to list. There is one man who I hear in my head whenever I pick up the tuba, and it's Chester Schmitz. There is no one with a sweeter, warmer, more incredibly beautiful sound than him. Plus incredible range, technique, intonation, control, and that circular breathing. I almost cried when I was told he was retiring. I never got to hear him in person like I had always dreamed.
