Thanks for the good word but I had to scratch my head on this one. "Ghost Train" is not on the Trittico recording. We played it a few years ago in concert but we have not recorded the piece.
For a real sonic feast, try the "Pomp and Pipes" CD. Warning: the last three minutes of "Polka and Fugue from Schwanda the Bagpiper" can inflict serious damage to stereo equiptment! Also check out "Holidays and Ephiphanies". The Reference Recording gurus really had the tubas dialed in on those sessions. The two march recordings are great as well. Actually, why don't you just buy all of the recordings. There is not a toad in the whole bunch!
