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.
Larger BBB â­ subcontrabass tubas exist, but are extremely rare (there are at least four known examples). The first two were built by Gustave Besson in BBB â­ , one octave below the BB â­ Contrabass tuba, on the suggestion of John Philip Sousa. The monster instruments were not completed until just after Sousa's death.
