Nationally. Today, this little workhorse played the Milwaukee TubaChristmas, with much success. I have played it in my local German band. It has toured this year to Dubuque, IA, Indianapolis, IN and Decatur, IL Everyone looks at it and just goes, meh...until they hear the big, fat sound that it produces. Intonation is very good on this free blowing horn. Do not let the small wrap fool you, it is a big as many of its Yamaha and Besson cousins. The bore size is what matters! There are several videos of this tuba performing, alongside larger wrap horns. It holds its own and turns heads for sure. Just click the link and listen to the sound of this horn playing at the DCI World Championships, with The Colts Alumni Corps:

The lower octave work is me and look how it compares in size to the Yamahas...same bore size though.
I highly recommend this horn not only for students, but for professionals looking for a nice rumble around axe. The sound speaks for itself!
