R.A.W. Tuba Film is the story of a Baltimore kid who experienced intermittent homelessness, and went on to become the first African American, in the world to receive Doctorate of Music in Tuba.

With over two decades of performing on the world’s classical music stages, tubist Dr Richard White has matured into a musician known for his clear sound and stylistic flexibility. He began his tuba studies with Ed. Goldstein at age twelve at The Baltimore School for the Performing Arts, where he graduated with honors. He then went to the Peabody Conservatory of Music to study with David Fedderly (Principal Tubist, Baltimore Symphony) where he received his Bachelor’s degree. On the advice of Mr. Fedderly, Richard traveled to Indiana University to study with the legendary Professor Daniel Perantoni. He continued his studies there receiving both his Master’s and Doctoral degrees.
