Shiny Tuba Slanted Perspective Brass Band Magnet

A brass marching band goes by with wind instruments including the biggest and baddest, the tuba. This tuba, taken at a slanted angle, is part of a procession by the Portuguese church in Hull (Gatineau) Quebec. Tubas usually play the bass notes in the music arrangement. This band is from Montreal, Canada. I love tubas! The bass tuba was patented in 1835 by a pair of Prussians (in what was soon to become the land of Germany); the tenor tuba, a few years later, by the son of one of the inventors. This colourful brass instrument is reflecting trees, houses and people in the flaring bell. Original music photo by M Sylvia Chaume, Canada.
