Baritone instead of tuba. Cool!

Munch's peppy tempo is proof that one needs to be ready for anything in an audition on those "standard" excerpts, no matter what horn you play!

COOL! That made my day.

Cool! I've always liked those horns (technically, I like the fixed bell ones better as they have a higher leadpipe and seem to play better). They're a lot more useful/versatile/... than most people give them credit for. Get a custom shank bass trombone mp (or swap out the receiver or leadpipe to use a stock one), put a .562 valve on from a .547 trombone (and if you do it right, you can use 5th valve pulls only for the low register thereby simplifying things and negating the need to reroute the 1st or 4th valve slides), and it'd be a sweet horn for some brass quintet, faking bassbone or mild cimbasso parts, big band when everyone else is playing flugels and marching trombones,.... If I had a hard time thinking in F or Eb, I would already have had one built as a bass trombone backup/different sound. I still may do it someday. Some of those polka guys in Europe can really crank on theirs!
That also appears to be a Reynolds bass trombone next to it.

I should have done something like this....
I played this a few years back with 3 trombones and 1 tuba. So, I got to bounce around between 3rd trombone and whichever tuba part I had. I should have played it on euphonium as this was "before I discovered how to play in tune on a trombone".... Whoops!
