No, but I made an arrangement once for our concert band of three dance numbers from early Astaire movies (Lovely to look at, The Carioca, Night and Day), calling it "Fred and Ginger". The Carioca is a catchy tune, but doggone, I didn't think of making it a Tuba solo!

Not Quintet but a brass ensemble (Blechschaden-members of the Munich Philharmonic with the late Tom Walsh as tuba soloist)
