What is TUBACHRISTMAS?


Harvey Phillips

TUBACHRISTMAS is a registered trademark of the Harvey Phillips Foundation, founded by renowned tuba player, the late Harvey Phillips, in 1974. Annual TUBACHRISTMAS events are held in various cities throughtout the United States, as well as international locations. The purpose of these events is to promote tuba and euphomium music by providing an opportunity for tuba and euphonium players of all different ages and skill levels to get together and perform Christmas music arranged specifically for those instruments. Younger players benefit from playing with older, more experienced players. Many players play at multiple events annually. The first TUBACHRISTMAS event held in Logan was in 2009, and events have been held in Logan every year since then, except in 2010. More information about TUBACHRISTMAS and the Harvey Phillips Foundation, as well as where other upcoming events are being held, can be found at http://TUBACHRISTMAS.com
