I don't know both, but think that the Reynolds version is G-R-E-A-T!

Your Favorite Barnum & Bailey's Favorite for Quintet

Post by Z-Tuba Dude »

I see 2 arrangements of Barnum & Bailey's Favorite for brass quintet. One is by Reynolds, and the other is by Gray. Does anyone know both?

I am just trying to avoid having to buy both!

Are there others?

THANKS!

and download a FREE version that kicks some serious butt. 1st trumpet is an Eb part and the horn player needs nerves of steel. Tuba - bring your iron lung.

Since we're on the subject of screamers for quintet, what are the favorite arrangements of "Entry of the Gladiators"?

Right now, we're using the Geoff Colmer one.
