I played it for my senior recital, 1974 -- memorized -- a requirement. When I hit the last high Bb, I had to supress a smile 'cause I knew I passed and it was all over. It really is a piano sonata with tuba accompaniment.
There’s nothing quite like the Roger Bobo recording of this. I recommend that everyone critically listen to that one several times while working in this piece.
Great video I'm a bass trombonist and play Tuba as a secondary instrument. Can't say how glad I am that High register wasn't too difficult when playing tuba. Especially when getting those very notes not to be forcefull
Very well taught, Jarrett! I really like your thoughts on the piece. I agree that it’s whimsical, even comical at times, and I think Hindemith intended this. Thanks for the excellent video, brother!

Thank you so much for this interpretation- so many young musicians can learn SO MUCH when people like you demystify it!!!

She? I played professionally 54 years and never met a female tubist.
