The first TUBACHRISTMAS was conducted by the late Paul Lavalle in New York City’s Rockefeller Plaza Ice Rink on Sunday, December 22, 1974. Traditional Christmas music performed at the first TUBACHRISTMAS was arranged by American composer Alec Wilder who ironically died on Christmas Eve, 1980.
Today, TUBACHRISTMAS concerts are held internationally, with Loudoun Valley High School’s own Rick Reaves hosting a Loudoun County concert which will feature a group of talented Tuba and Euphonium players.
