Does anybody know if the piece "Mary's Idea" by Barney Childs is still in print? It looks pretty interesting. Thanks yet again,

It's out of print, so far as I know.
Mary was Mary Rasmussen, the tuba playing editor of the Brass Quarterly (1957-64) and the Brass and Woodwind Quarterly (1966-69), both of which she did singlehandedly (authoring, editing, and publishing).

Barney Childs (1926-2000) was Professor of New Music at the University of Redlands. He was the first teacher I ever saw who smoked a huge cigar in front of his students.

Mary's Idea (1967) was to create an original tuba solo in Baroque style with a harpsichord accompaniment--piano is not to be substituted!
