Nice. I understand that there are some people who can listen to that
without thinking of Bo Derek. :-)


In the brass section one of the guys is playing a four-valve trumpet.
I've heard of them but have never seen one being used before.

Richard I’m thinking that the 4thvalve is the same on a Tuba in which it eliminated the need for valves 2 and 3 in certain notes



Don't know. I think it's referred to as a "piccolo" trumpet.
Options I think for Bb, A and Eb tuning.
