I <3 Eric Whitacre. Have you heard October? We played that last year in Symphonic. Shit was awesome and was also a song that made the hair stand up on the back of my neck.

[Dan The Tuba Man]

I feel the best moment was when I performed Ticheli's snactuary in a concert for GHYWE (Greater Hartford Youth Wind Ensemble). It was my first concert in a high quality ban and about halfway through the song there was a giant crescendo. The Tuba was like the last intrument to come in and when we came in that moment sent shivers down my spine. That was the one moment that really epitimizes what music is all about to me.
