Shiny Tuba Slanted Perspective Brass Band Paper Coaster

A big brass shiny tuba, part of a Portuguese marching band from Montreal, Quebec. You can customise the shape of this one! The tuba is the biggest and baddest of the wind instruments, with the deepest pitch. It's also categorised as a brass instrument or aerophone. I took this photo on an angle, so the tuba is straight and the bits of the band fill in the background in a rather abstract way. It was a great groove! This design is excellent for music lovers, musicians, especially tuba players; fans of big band, blues, jazz or swing music; anyone who likes shiny brass instruments. Brass is an alloy of copper and tin, and can be polished up to a soft warm glow. The tuba was invented in Germany (then Prussia, in 1835) and is a popular feature in traditional Oktoberbest music and polkas. Original photo M Sylvia Chaume, Canada.
