Les Baricades Misterieuses

Post by TheChiefofStaph »

Thought it might be of interest that on Memorial Day during an outtro from a story about a combat photographer NPR's All Things Considered played an excerpt from Les Baricades Misterieuses as played by the Meinl Sextet on "Tuba! A Six-Tuba Musical Romp." Later in the show they also played Canzona Per Sonare #4 from the same album. I think its great when the tuba can get a little exposure like this, and ATC has been a great forum for it (several years ago they had Sam Pilafian and Pat Sheridan on for their album).

For those interested, the show in question can be reviewed at:

Enjoy!
