A musical virtuoso is an artist on a quest to explore higher musical ground. Imagine such a noble journey with a tuba strapped to your back! Such is the life of Patrick Sheridan, tuba virtuoso. Patrick's mission is to play the tuba at the level of this century's great violinists. Such a daunting task takes the courage of an explorer and a "larger than life" musical personality. His ultimate goal is to have the audience forget for a time that they are listening to a tuba.
