When was the Tuba invented? Wilhelm Wieprecht and Carl Moritz in Prussia designed and patented the tuba as a âbasstubaâ in F1 on 12th September 1835. The tuba is a brass musical instrument of the largest and lowest pitched. When tuba is blown very low sound is produced by it.
The sousaphone (US: / Ë s uË z É f oÊ n /) is a brass instrument in the same family as the more widely known tuba. Created around 1893 by J.W. Pepper at the direction of American bandleader John Philip Sousa (whom the instrument was then named after), it was designed to be easier to play than the concert tuba while standing or marching, as well as to carry the sound of the instrument above the heads of the band.
