Currently revisiting Beelzebub, it's really fun to play. Brushing up on the Hindemith Sonata and Wilder Effie Suite as well. Good luck!

Well... Newton Capriccio, Applegate Concerto and Unnacompanied Suite, Mozart and Strauss First Horn Concerto, F. Strauss Nocturno, Barnes Concerto, VW Tuba Concerto, Booker Sonata, and Gregson Concerto. No perticular occasion to keep these pieces worked up, but it's more fun to have more material to work on. Have fun everybody.
