The Connecticut Symphonic Band played before and during a fireworks show the other night. One of the trumpet players did Carnival of Venice, I did the Carioca, etc, and boy was it hot! Perhaps the best piece in the program was Copeland's "outdoor Overture", but a long diesel train picked that time to roar by on the tracks just across the river (only about 40 yards wide there) with much honking and blasting of horns. Charlie Ives would have loved it.
