The Sound of Jazz Tuba

"The Sound of Jazz Tuba" brings together a deep and unexpected blend of jazz styles led by the rich, resonant tones of the tuba. With tracks spanning traditional New Orleans street brass ("Oh! Lady Be Good" by Tuba Fats and "Lil' Liza Jane" by Tuba Fats' Chosen Few Jazzmen), modern funk-fusion ("Chameleon" by Tennessee Tech Tuba Ensemble), and even jazz interpretations of pop hits like “Bad Romance” and “Hey Jude,” this playlist shows how versatile the tuba can be when it steps into the spotlight.

Featuring standout performances by low brass legends like Howard Johnson, Jon Sass, and Rich Matteson, the list covers everything from the rhythmic swing of “Sing, Sing, Sing” to the atmospheric subtlety of “Syrinx.” Avant-garde cuts like “Satan’s Penis” by Oren Marshall and groove-heavy originals like “Backyard Groove” by Kirk Joseph add variety and edge. Whether it’s bebop, blues, or ballads, this mix showcases the tuba as a surprisingly agile jazz voice, not just background support.
