That is accurate. The part is there but not "Rocket Science." As a historical aside, Mr. Torchinsky played the original run of Carousel in New York.

When I did the road show version of this a while back it was a bass trombone/tuba book. Again not that hard.

Has anyone said that this book isn't very hard yet? because it isn't (the show has a interesting plot though)

About par for the course for most conductors. I wonder what would have happened if you'd left.
