Wow, what a shame. He was a man I wanted to meet for years. I met Gerhard Meinl and Peter Hirsbrunner, but never him. Rest in peace, sir.

Christmas Medley #2 - Up for Grabs!
Here is another medley of my shorter arrangements. It weighs in with a better (more realistic) length, at around 7:30. It has some lesser-known tunes, so not really kid-friendly, but old farts will know many of them, and older farts also tend to be more accepting of new ideas like French carols not ...

Re: Per Request: A Christmas Medley of My Too-Short Pieces
Sounds like a late-1960s composition for tuba, reel-to-reel tape, and bowed bedpan.

Candy Canes and Water Keys
If Snow is on Your Corno, It's Christmas Again
Red Rot and Tinsel
Tuba Bells

Per Request: A Christmas Medley of My Too-Short Pieces
This one ought to be called "Merry Cease and Desistmas"…
Please don't bother listening to this on a phone. Use good speakers, or it will sound like the crap that normally comes out of phones. Seriously.
The craptacular MIDI file cannot be tweaked to be any better. It is what it is: a reference ...

USPS, inbound from Dallas on Saturday…
