I listened to the whole thing, which I get payed to do, and was blown away. Really fantastic performance. Way to go Chris!

I heard the whole thing, also. It was great! Looking forward to next Saturday!
I think he must have had the lacquer taken off that Besson and changed mouthpieces because he sounded, well, just a wee bit different.

I listened today. How about that bass trombone! It was awe inspiring.

I have not played a 995. Is the sound particularly distinctive? I imagine it uses the same bell as the 994 BBb and would therefore have a similar tone?
