Interesting. I just bought the violin sheet music for this thinking it might make a nice tuba solo. I guess I was right.

Last year at the Chicago Tubachristmas, he played that same arrangement in honor of Harvey Phillips; I've actually been looking for a copy of the arrangement he used, does anybody know where to find it?

Arrangement? Isn't he just playing the melody?

Yeah, I'll bet he didn't use a printed arrangement.
