hey

Down here at west hall high school in Georgia our low brass section (and really the whole band after they heard it) are simply in awe of the euphonium part on "The Melody Shop" by Karl King. Ive got the recording of the UGA Chamber Winds with the absolutely awesome Jason Ham on euphonium.

So Ive been wondering

a) is that a transcription or something, or did King actually write this as a solo?

b)what type of range does the solo require? It seems to get up there in the high notes

c)technically, how hard is it? sixteenth, thirty-second notes? Triple tonguing?

d)is the music available?

e)is Jason Ham great or what?

f)am i done?

thanks for any help
