Steve Rosse
Steve told me he was playing December and January with the Philadelphia Orchestra so I guess it was him.

Yea, i was under the impression that shosti 15 was a bit more brassy. I was very surprised when it didn't even call for a full brass section; 2 trumpets, 4 horns, 3 bones, and tuba. The William Tell Overture kicked butt! And i'm not a real fan of the John Adams' minimalist style, but the soloist was amazing! Great concert.

I was thinkin that normally there would be a couple more trumpets. But still, when I was told before going that it called for 6 trumpets, 8 horns, 4 bones, and 2 tubas (something like that) and you come in and there is a brass section the before mentioned, it's a little surprising. So I meant not full compared to what I heard from other people.
