Synopsis
In this animated video, the classic "Tubby the Tuba" musical albums that have been loved by children all over the world are brought to life.
As the story begins, Tubby bids farewell to life in the Great Orchestra after a long time playing nothing but "oompahs" with the band. Free at last, he sets out into the wide world to find a melody he can call his own.
His journey brings him first to a circus, where he performs a dancing elephant routine that quickly becomes popular. From there, he travels to the sparkling streets of Singing City. There, he falls in love with a beautiful orphan melody.
With the guidance of a friendly bullfrog, he soon learns the importance of remaining true to himself and discovers the secret song he's been looking for.
