It is definitely a Wagner Tuba. Remember that the Wagner Tuba is not reall=
y a tuba - more a horn and uses a horn-style mouthpiece. The one in the vi=
deo is a smaller one than I have ever encountered before (but not a "euphon=
ium"). There was a whole family of them of which I thought only the biggie=
s were still used.=0A=0AA fun piece too!=0A=0ARoger Hewitt=0A=0A=0A=0A-----=
