Talk about your red instruments and blue instruments...
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Of course, this piece will be available soon from BCD Press, if I am not mistaken.

Re: Tuning and Mnozil Brass
Oddly enough, if this was a performance by*******insert your favorite wind band/wind ensemble/symphonic winds/chamber winds******it would have been hailed by wind band/wind ensemble/symphonic winds/chamberwinds conductors/afficiandos as a brilliant new/cutting edge/composition. It probably would generate 12-15 Doctoral Dissertations and no less than 40 "scholarly" articles.
Of course there would not have been as many people in the audience.

I think those screams would have sounded better on a CC.

I think the decision was made based on the fingerings!k001k47 wrote:I think those screams would have sounded better on a CC.
If you have not heard these guys, find out where they are playing and go!! They are entertaining, funny, etc., but above all of that they never let the antics get in the way of the playing. The playing is just amazing!!
And now back to plunking notes for more tuba duets....

I've seen their stuff on youtube. They look like an extremely entertaining group.
It would be nice to watch them live.
