This rendition of The Happy Farmer (arranged by Paul Lavalle) will be available soon... including (1) full coil-bound score, (2) solo and band parts, and (3) photocopy of Mr. Bell's original solo part inscribed "Bill Bell.... NBC Studios.... 10:00)." The piece has been temporarily out-of-print for a little while. After a few minor corrections and adjustments are made I'll print up a new batch. I will also start a list of those who might be interested in acquiring the piece. Just send a short note... including your name and email address... to Steve Shoop at

If you enjoy solos on the big horn, the Barnes Concerto is for you. I'ts written for CC, and I've seen a number of players play it on 6/4 horns, and it rocks.... There is still room for some good Contra Bass solos!!
