When it comes to pure entertainment, the Canadian Brass are the kings of schtick and this Dixieland tuba feature is one of the highlights of their concerts. David Marshall's clever, playable version can feature a soloist or the entire tuba section, and packs in all the fun and silliness - just the right thing for a dull audience!

Technical Notes: Note to performers: The term "Dixieland" came from the Original Dixieland Band, which was a group of white musicians who began performing in 1917 in a style that was previously played only by black musicians in New Orleans. (The style is sometimes called "New Orleans Jazz" or "Traditional Jazz".) The "Dixieland" band took this infectious, uniquely American style of music all over the world, and subsequently made many recordings that became famous in the 1920s. The Dixieland style had a resurgence of popularity in the 1950s and has remained an active part of American musical life since that time. "Tuba Tiger Rag" is one of those classic, timeless Dixieland titles that are at the core of the New Orleans style. Our rendition adds many special touches unique to The Canadian Brass, thanks to Luther Henderson's brilliantly creative setting of the piece for brass quintet. For the last ten years, when asked for an encore, we have played "Tuba Tiger Rag" more often than any other piece. Playing this novelty number gives us some of the best fun we ever have on stage. We hope it's the same for you and your band.
