I remember a wonderful performance given of this transcription. Jamie Hafner(one of those great tuba players you never hear about) was the soloist with the Brevard Music Center Symphonic Band under the direction of Willaim Pharris(whose son, Steve, is a wonderful tuba player). The clarinet parts are an absolute B*&^%$H as are the rest of the parts. It will take a top-notch band to pull it off. Oh yeah, Summer of 1979. Any of you Brevard-ites remember the Trombone choir on Sunday nights? I seem to remember a guy named Charlie Vernon laying it down with another no-name(obviously, just kidding), Steve Norell. Those guys knew where the positions were!!!!!!
