April 17, 2013 - Tubas


Ella plays daddy's recorder, but calls it a tuba.


Every musical instrument you blow is a tuba.
Everyone you bow is a viola.


What she doesn't know is that that is a tuba.


She prefers to play her recorder.


OK. Now she's intrigued.



She plays her Ella-sized tuba, a euphonium.


We honk together for a while.


She's lost her lungs a bit,


but can still honk.


Teaching her to blow.


Good girl.


We trade.


Ella honks the tuba.


Nice. Fun and funky.
