[Trombone-l] Tuba Oystein Baadsvik

[Patrick McNeal]

I believe he could. At his master class, someone showed him a double-bell 
 euphonium (which he had never seen before), and he picked it up, played a 
 few notes and figured out how the second bell worked, then played an 
 impromptu version of Dueling Banjos, bouncing back and forth between the 
 bells.
 Yeah, I bet he could do some Dixieland ;-)
