Tuba meaning in International ? |
Answer» What is tuba mean? The tuba (UK: ; US: ) is the lowest-pitched musical instrument in the brass family. As with all brass instruments, the sound is produced by lip vibration – a buzz – into a mouthpiece. It first appeared in the mid-19th century, making it one of the newer instruments in the modern orchestra and concert band. The tuba largely replaced the ophicleide. Tuba is Latin for "trumpet". A person who plays the tuba is called a tubaist or tubist, or simply a tuba player. In a British brass band or military band, they are known as bass players. reference |
