I'm not very tech-savvy...
If someone could record that from the broadcast (even if through their headphone jack and convert from analog to digital).
I'd love to have a copy of (ONLY the Janacek.

Anyway...
If you guys would like to listen, they rounded up some pretty good brass peeps for the "banda"...

something else pretty cool...
The concert opens up (not a "pops" concert) with a fantastic Pink Floyd medley (Dark Side of the Moon LP) orchestrated by Sam Shoup.
Sam's a super bass player, sometimes trumpet player, I went to kolij with him, and (at least, in the past) he was (is?) the official arranger for the National Symphony Orchestra. https://www.memphis.edu/music/fac-staff/shoupsam.php

fanfares (Janacek) are NINE trumpets, TWO bass trumpets, TWO tenor tubas

Anyway, if someone is curious enough to listen, might be willing to record the Janacek, convert it to digital if they have that capability, and Dropbox it, I'd appreciate it.

I would like to thank a wonderful friend who lives about 750 miles away for grabbing the Sinfonietta off the radio and sending it to me via Dropbox. I'm completely satisfied that the pair of euphoniums - in perfect fifths - were plenty loud, and boy :bugeyes: were the bass trumpets loud...
