Reminds me of a band arrangement of Till Eulenspiegel I played years ago on a band job. Greatly abridged, of course, but the worse was the horn solo had been transfigured for old Eb mellophone. It was in Eb concert, and played ON the beat! The last three notes were in the baritone part. I convinced the conductor to let me play it right, except in Eb, though. Sorry, I don't remember the initials of the good conductors. I'm glad my teacher, Prof. IMG made me play everything in Eb, though! Hey Bill, you didn't mention who had the solo? I'm assuming it was either alto sax, alto clarinet, flugelhorn or accordion. I doubt if Owen is related to Jerry. KB In a message dated 2/7/2008 1:01:18 P.M.

Greetings from Wildomar! Are those on the list aware of the abomination the BelwinMills arrangement of Ravel's Pavane, by Owen Goldsmith. I assume this **** was an attempt to get some ones middle school orchestra to play music that the kids may have heard. The solo horn line is gone. The first horn part is some sort of backround chording. I asked the conductor to withdraw this excrement and replace it with the original score and parts. Since I didn't have Kendalls lead pipe, my suggestion fell on tone deaf ears. The conductors initials are John Brannon. I will be playing with a different orchestra this evening. Sheeeesh!
