Baritone horn solos are fairly rare, compared to euphonium solos. This person plays like an angel. My ears are telling me that this English baritone resonance - even though the bell overall is noticeably smaller - isn't much different from virtuoso American baritone horn players' sound production when they played solos back when I was a boy, and I was able to hear a couple of those players.
I'm also reminded of the challenges of having a wind band or brass band (which - duh - is also a wind band) accompany soloists, and it's just that the trumpets have trouble getting out of the way enough. I've experienced this when I've played various novelty and multi-movement solo works in front of wind bands, and - more recently - when I played a movement (similar to the one this person is playing on her baritone - a legato movement) with a brass ensemble ( a considerably smaller group than a full British brass band). Again, the trumpets and even a piccolo trumpet were covering violin parts, and there's no other phrase to describe what was going on other than "louder than it should have been".

Enjoy her playing:

it's really nice. Having played many times in a concert band that was accompanying a soloist, I never understood why the sections weren't simply reduced to one player during the solo parts. Instead everybody got the hand 100% of the time, which was silly.

I am lucky enough that there are two great British style bands local to me. I get to hear really talented soloists on euphonium, baritone, and cornet regularly. It helps keeps me motivation on Euphonium, when I am really struggling.. Aiming for that sweet sound.

Does anyone know of a standard concert band arrangement of this tune and where to get it?
