5.0 out of 5 stars Without question, the best tubist of all time., June 24, 1999
By A Customer
I was fortunate to have been a Los Angeles Philharmonic subscriber while Bobo was principal tubist. He anchored what was then one of the finest low brass sections of any orchestra. Any doubt as to his virtuosity is dispelled by this recording. This should be in the collection of any aspiring tubist as an example of what can be accomplished in the hands of a master.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must., February 1, 1999
By A Customer
Bobo's rendition of Carnival of Venice left me with my jaw on the floor. I was amazed at the technicality he produces. Hearing my old high school trumpet playing teacher play it and then hearing Bobo was definitely a treat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top of the line, September 4, 2007
By Timothy "Sutton" (Arkana, Montana) - See all my reviews
He is more than a tubist - he is a musician.

In other words, any instrumentalist, from tuba to banjo could benefit from hearing him play.

One of many examples.
