Help me find this solo?

Ok, folks...

This is a long shot.

I'm looking for an arrangement of Happy Farmer, Jolly Peasant, Happy Peasant, Jolly Peon... You know, that tune by Schumann.

I played it perhaps 25 years ago in school and I remember really liking it. It's not the ...Goes to Town one, nor is it the Rubank one. It has a cadenza where it speeds up until the: da, da, da, dum... da, da, da, dum... accels to triple tonguing, ta, da, ga, dum... ta, da, ga, dum, etc.

It was the tune my teacher at the time (who has no recollection of arranger's name nor where he got the tune from) chose for me to learn triple tonguing. (Thanks a lot Dave Dawe!) :evil:

I'm trying to think of more clues, but no dice.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
Al

I listened to that version and it not the arrangement I'm looking for. It's great, but not the one.
