What is Boston Tuba Christmas?

Looking for something a little bit different on Saturday, November 24? How about upwards of 200 tubas playing Christmas carols in one of Boston's premiere locations? What's that? Yeah. I said tubas.

According to Mike Milnarik, the force behind the Boston version of the worldwide phenomenon Tuba Christmas, the tuba is a much-misunderstood instrument. As he puts it, "the tube can do anything other instruments can do, just in a lower register." Milnarik made his case for the tuba on BPR ahead of this year's Boston Tuba Christmas, which  takes place Saturday, November 24, 2pm at Faneuil Hall Marketplace. 

Not convinced yet? Here a taste of last year's festivities:
