Tuba Bach's first goal has always been to make exceptional music available to all with no barriers, which is why there is never an admission charge for any concert during the Tuba Bach Chamber Music Concert Festival. However, we all know that these concerts are not truly free. It costs money to put on these shows... more than you might expect. If you have the means and believe that performances like these are important to the community, then we ask you for your donation.
