So I went to a John Grifiths tuba clinic on Saturday, and one of the things he played was Blackbird, arranged by Lars Holmgaard. He mentioned that he thought it was/is available online, but as of yet, I haven't found it...
Can anyone help me out? or, does anyone have it?
(post here, or email eric_probst@hotmail.com)
Thanks!

As I understand it, this version of Blackbird is not available commercially due to the copyright issues. However, Mr Lars Holmgaard does stop by this forum from time to time, and he has very kindly been know to make it available directly.

FWIW.

John's site

John's contact info can be found here:

http://thetubaguy.com/

He's a very approachable gentleman and I'm sure he'd be happy to send more info (or even post it on his site maybe?) on the piece.

He gave me a copy of his latest recording, "Extreme Tuba." When it is actually on the market BUY IT! It's amazing what the guy can do on the tuba.
