Of course, this piece will be available soon from BCD Press, if I am not mistaken.

Oddly enough, if this was a performance by*******insert your favorite wind band/wind ensemble/symphonic winds/chamber winds******it would have been hailed by wind band/wind ensemble/symphonic winds/chamberwinds conductors/afficiandos as a brilliant new/cutting edge/composition. It probably would generate 12-15 Doctoral Dissertations and no less than 40 "scholarly" articles.
Of course there would not have been as many people in the audience.

I think those screams would have sounded better on a CC.

I think the decision was made based on the fingerings!
If you have not heard these guys, find out where they are playing and go!! They are entertaining, funny, etc., but above all of that they never let the antics get in the way of the playing. The playing is just amazing!!
And now back to plunking notes for more tuba duets....

I've seen their stuff on youtube. They look like an extremely entertaining group.
It would be nice to watch them live.

but, 5th valve in the leadpipe or after the valves? all rotors or 4p/1r? What about compensating?
STP or Al Cass on the valves? Dude, you opened up so many important questions...
