Come!

Agree with the above comments! I'm particularly fond of the Alfred Reed arrangement of The Music Man.

Break a lip!

You are the unsung hero of this concert, ya know!

Less than a week until this. After a brief intermission, our Dixieland group is also playing a short set. (I am not in that one, unfortunately).

There are more notes on this program than I've played in a long time. Extremely tuba-heavy (even besides the Gregson)!

If only I was not so far away!

See y'all in a bit!
