I think it's funny how they say its a "tuba solo", but the whole low brass has the line also..great video though.

Are you sure? I never noticed that. I've heard some trumpet racket and drums banging around but I thought the rest of the brass must have been tacit throughout. hmmmm, I'll have to listen better next time. Are there any woodwind parts?

I know there's no conductor part, they always fake it anyway.

Hey John. Thanks for the link to that video. It brought back good memories. Richard will be greatly missed!

keep in touch and hope all is well

I played "Them Basses" with the Shrine Bans a couple of month ago. I play euphonium with that group. And I have directed "Them Basses" several times in a couple of different groups.

Indeed, the solo line is in tuba, euph and trombone--and presumably the low woodwinds as well.

I seem to remember that there ARE high woodwind parts (we would not have programmed any music without those parts in either band). I don't think they are very important. Pretty much like the cornet/trumpet parts except there may be a few trills.
