[windshieldbug]

Many volumes of the Torchinsky Orchestral Excerpts

[dmmorris]

lots of ragtime (max morath type stuff mostly).....the charts are treble clef melody lines with the chords roots written in pencil. Sometimes I'm lucky to get a piano part.

........then in a week or two, that will be displaced by the annual round of honky-tonk music in prep' for Mardi Gras. Different music, but the charts will be of similar ilk.

[Steve Marcus]

[quote=ebarr]-Introduction and Dance (Barat)[/quote]
fun piece!

[tubaguy9]

Bored?? Tell me you're joking. Not only is that a lot of music, that's a lot of GOOD music. Folk Dances, La Procession du Rocio, Fanfare and Flourishes, Courtly Airs and Dances, Festivo, Sundance, plus His Honor and Americans We - those are all fine pieces, lots of merit, each one of them. Those should be more than enough to keep you plenty musically challenged, not to mention technically.

P.S.: the composer of His Honor is Henry Fillmore.

No, none of them except Grant Them Eternal Rest is boring...

As I'm writing this, I'm recovering from being extremely lightheaded from Mannin Veen...
