The point was they would not buy me that part. Everyone else on the gig has a part for their own instrument. The conductors attitude was, use the Tuba part if you wanna play. If not, don't play. I have been Principal bass there for many years. I have never had to buy my own music for a concert.

I pay $4 for a cup of coffee though, sorry, not American dollars.

Excuse this suggestion but, what would he say if he realised the basses
weren't playing? Is he paying you a good salary to play whatever he puts in front of you or is this more about not much money but musical enjoyment?
