Arnold Jacobs Legacy Series

A live presentation featuring video clips of Mr. Jacobs

“With a career spanning seven decades with the Indianapolis, Pittsburgh and Chicago Symphonies, Arnold Jacobs has earned a reputation as a world-class performer. Equally significant are his teachings. During his career, thousands of students have passed through his studio.”

After the passing of Arnold and Gizella Jacobs, we have been working with the Jacobs family to create the Arnold and Gizella Jacobs Collection. The Arnold Jacobs Legacy Series is a series of presentations that examines Mr. Jacobs’ extraordinary career. While Mr. Jacobs is no longer with us, the Arnold Jacobs Legacy Series is the next best thing!

“Brian Frederiksen was on hand to present his always intriguing Arnold Jacobs presentation. With video clips, audio clips and photos, plus Brian’s knowledge of Jacobs and his teaching, this is rapidly becoming an important staple at tuba conferences. Much has been said about the legacy of Arnold Jacobs and his teaching; all of it is deserved and his profound influence cannot be understated. This video series presented by Mr. Frederiksen is an effective way to introduce new generations of musicians to Mr. Jacobs and his teaching”. . Stephen Oberheu from Tubonium7 review.
