Two F Tubas |
Believe it or not,
tubas are among the hot objects of choice for thieves in southern California. According to a story in online editions of the LA Times, the ungainly musical instruments are disappearing from the region's schools nearly as fast as they can be purchased. It's hard to pinpoint a reason. The instruments are expensive, often costing many thousands of dollars. Significantly, tubas are key to
banda music, the very popular sound closely connected to southern California, the Southwest, and Mexico.
Who would have ever thought there would be a market for a hot tuba? Times have indeed changed.
