@@BrianJohnstonTrombone I don't think that's an unreasonable thing to say at all. Definitely up there with Chuck Dallenbach. After that, I guess it could be largely a matter of taste. Sam certainly had a more prolific solo career.

@@jamesliu1001 I see both as extremely important to tuba playing in America, in part because they each were very successful pedagogues. However, I see Jacobs as a pioneer of orchestral tuba playing, whereas Sam was the pioneer of tuba in the realm of chamber music.

During the 1970-71 school year at the Boston University School of Fine and Applied Arts I had the privilege and pleasure of playing tuba in the Boston University Brass Quintet. Rich Raffio played first trumpet, Rolf Smedwig played second trumpet, Jim Lauderbach played horn, and Marshall Stith played trombone. Among the numerous pieces of literature that we practiced and performed was the Ewald Quintet that starts off this album. It has always been a favorite of mine and hearing brings back many good memories. Don LaPlante

I was at B.U. studying composition and theory with John Goodman, Joyce Mckeel and Gardner Read during those years and knew Smedvig and Smith. I loved writing for brass. What a great group of guys you were. And I too considered it a privilege and pleasure - just to be around players like you. Good memories indeed !

Thanks for posting this very clean copy of the original vinyl. This is possibly the perfect quintet album. Every articulation, phrase, release, and chord are just perfect. This is tight playing that is also extremely musical. I had the chance to study with these guys at Tanglewood and BU in the 80's. Hard to believe that Rolf and Sam are now gone.

I'm brought to tears just learning, via this video, about Rolf's untimely death. What a consistent beautiful sound he had through the entire register. Made it sound effortless. He showed us another level of what was attainable. We heard this album soon after it was released and it still sets the standard. A cassette on which I recorded their performance on the radio program Saint Paul Sunday Morning is long lost. If anyone has a recording and can post it you'll be entertained and informed. They mentioned further Ewald pcs that may exist.

I remember, so FONDLY, playing the 1st Quintet... so lyrical and enjoyable in so many ways !!! It takes me back to 1972 when I was studying at the New School of Music (Philly) under the tutelage of Don McComas - when we played / performed it. I continue to practice an hour/day (plus compose) in order to honor Don and Alex Wilson... both who taught me so much about how to be a player who could perform at the highest level possible with style and authority (controlled breathing and vibrato).
