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

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)!
