Here is an interesting excerpted, I think, version

I like Edgar Winter's version too ;-) (no tubas in this, but the LSJUMB does a great arrangement...much better than the U$C version )

I've got a lot of love for my Hohner soprano melodica. It's been my best buddy for a few years. :mrgreen:

One of my most memorable rehearsal moments: the movement that ends with all the hosephones spinning overhead and then stopping together. Sir Simon instructed us to all hold the hosephones in such a way as to create a "true Maplethorpe moment".

Truly a unique piece. Good fun.
