(Music)

(End of music)

(clap)

Thank you so much.

These sounds are often what most people think when they see a Tuba machine.

But now I will give you something completely different.

I will give you a piece “Vittorio Monte Tsardaz” written for the violin.

(Music)

(clap)

(Laughter)

(End of music)

(Music)

(End of music)

(clap)

Thank you so much.

Thank you so much.

I know what you’re thinking: Why do I choose the Tuba machine right in the sky?

(Laughter)

My answer is clearly: I chose the Tuba machine

To attract the attention of the most beautiful girls in school.

Now my wife is next to me on the piano.

(clap)

To be frank with you is not what really happened.

All that happened was that I wanted to start at the local Wind Orchestra

The tuba machine was the machine available.

So it was either tuba or nothing to me.

At first I played the traditional Tuba

As you heard me do when I enter the theater

Which they sometimes refer to as “Umba Umpa”

That’s what we’re doing in Wind.

It is not the best job in the band but it is very important.

As many Tuba musicians know, they are much harder than they seem

It could have stopped there.

I could have spent five years playing in the team

And then looking for another job.

But I had an important experience that changed my life.

I had a very excited Tuba teacher named Ivenid

He pushed me into the world of magical tupa.

Hidden from the eyes of most people.

(Laughter)

For example, do you know that there is a global organization of Tuba?

Its name is T-U-ba-A, the world-wide brotherhood of the Toibist.

It is still in the name of ITT-EA International Tuba Eufonium Association.

I loved the first name more but I started listening to recordings.

There were not a lot of soloists at that time.

He was a pioneer in this field or rather some pioneer

They are: Harvey Phillips and Roger Bobo from the United States

There was also John Fletcher of England

Michael Lind of Sweden has left a great impression

What really amazed me was that it was not about the limits of the machine’s potential

This piece of metal has no limits.

It’s all about the artist himself.

Let me play you a song I wrote myself, called

“everything will be alright.”

(Music)

(End of music)

(clap)

Thank you very much.

This copper tube is therefore five meters long

It was first invented on 12 September 1835.

So it is a really new machine.

The solist did not start on the tuba machine until the 1950s

And part of the fun for me:

Is to find everything possible using this machine.

One of the first things I experimented with was: How fast is the tuba?

You need to use double blowing to do this

It is true that exactly as you guessed for the Sunan is the opposite of one tongue.

(Laughter)

To-To-To-To-Is is a singular Toko Toko is a dual

So be the sound.

(Music)

There is a television series called Doctor House

In which a Tuba player plays very fast to death.

(Laughter)

It turned out that producers offer

They saw one of my videos on YouTube where I was playing a quick song

Called “Carnival Venice” I will not play today for safety reasons.

But I will continue to play the double blow in the low tones.

Let us listen to it now.

(Tuba Ringtones)

(End of Tuba Playing)

“This voice is different from the sound of the tuba,” my teacher said when I performed this performance

But it’s like the sound of a helicopter that stops immediately. “

Of course I did not. I even added a tone from my stomach

So watch my belly as I play the helicopter again.

(Tuba Ringtones)

(Regular applause)

(End of Tuba Ringtones)

Well, then we can add a simple whistling

(Whistling from the tuba)

Between the sounds of the helicopter

(Regular tones on the tuba)

(The end of regular tones on the tuba)

As you know, I had a lot of free time in the growth phase.

(Laughter)

In the countryside outside the city of Torndheim here.

(Cheers) (Applause)

So I started experimenting with something called multiple acoustics

Where they sing and play at the same time

(Multiple Audios on the Tuba)

(End of multiple audio on Tuba)

Well, that’s why when you merge … (Applause)

thank you.

When you merge this sound … (Multiple Audios on the Tuba)

With the voice of the helicopter … (Tuba Ringtones)

And this sound (sapphire tuba)

Which has no name yet

You have a song I wrote myself called “Vonog”.

It is designed to make you think after the conference

The tuba machine is the coolest machine on earth

(Laughter)

(Playing the tuba song: phoenog)

(End of the phoenix song on the tuba)

(Applause and cheers)
