I love the color of the mute of the part, but there is little time to do the change IIRC. What a fun part, have fun!

Exactly what I did when we played it. Works great! Fun part.the elephant wrote:...If we ever play it again I will likely purchase a simply H&B aluminum and practice getting it in and out fast enough. These mutes make a fairly buzzy tone and are loud, so keeping up with the trumpets and their metal mutes works a lot better...
My opinion for what it's worth...
