"The Tuba, as you know, was phased out of most ensembles around 1923 with the introduction of the "walking" upright bass. Since then it has only been in the last 20 years that composers and arrangers have begun hearing the instrument. As a result, there are more instances in which the Tuba appears in ensemble work." Bob Stewart is able to bring the sounds of the past into the present day with his own, unique, soulful flare. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Bob+Stewart">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
