I played this piece yesterday with the Markham Concert Band. Despite having been playing the Tuba in Bands and Orchestras since the 70s I only started seriously practicing about 18 months ago and this is my first public performance as a soloist.

Constructive comments are, of course, welcome, so I can get it better next time
I am, of course, painfully aware of the obvious points

Well thanks Al - all your encouragement, guidance and sage advice were invaluable in preparing for this
(But how was the video editing
- that's what I really wanted to know

The production quality was lovely! I loved those diamond-shaped transitions! Ooo!
