Why there's no Trumpet Christmas...
Almost every year for the past several years I have been going to an event called Tuba Christmas. They hold the TC events on different dates in different places. My first Tuba Christmas was at the Kennedy Center. They had a couple of hundred tuba/euphonium players playing Christmas carols in the foyer (well, actually on the Millenium Stage, if you're familiar wtih the Kennedy Center). Anyway, it was a fabulous experience, and it was an absolute BLAST hearing that great huge TUBA sound, in parts, playing Christmas carols.
Well, as I'm making plans with some friends to go to see Tuba Christmas this year in Solomon's Island, the band teacher at my school sent me this link. It's entitled "Why there is no such thing as Trumpet Christmas. LOL!! If you have ever heard a real jazz trumpeter (aren't they all??), you'll LOVE this, and you will split your sides laughing!! Enjoy!!
