A tuba is a very low brass instrument. They make a very beautiful tone when played correctly, but can sound horrible when played wrong
The tuba largely replaced the ophicleide. Tuba is Latin for 'Trumpet'. A person who plays the tuba is known as a tubaist or tubist. The instrument normally plays the role of the bass in bands and orchestras. It is commonly used for the lowest notes in the treble cleft and has a bottom range normally of low "G" below "C" in the scale.
