Over 50 area tuba and euphonium players will present the fourth annual
Commerce Merry TUBACHRISTMAS concert on Saturday, December 8.  The

Foundation.  

 

TUBACHRISTMAS concerts are performed annually in over 150 cities

as a tribute to the late, great William J. Bell who was born on
Christmas Day in 1902.  "Bill" Bell is recognized by all musicians as
the dean of tuba players throughout the world.  This year's concert will
be dedicated to the memory of Harvey Phillips (1929-2010), founder of
Tubachristmas, who passed away on October 20, 2010.
