Tuba

I play a little tuba and although I'm better than anyone in my school, I am no where near professional level. The tuba is one of the simplest instruments to pick up an learn the basics. But a real tuba player has to practice constantly to stay good and to get better. Tuba belongs in the classical genre of music mostly although not always used. Many orchestras don't have tuba players. Marching bands is where the tuba player can shine though. Give them a contra bugle or a sousaphone and they can go places. But a real tuba player plays in classical events. I've even heard a tuba play Carnival of Venice.
