YES! EDWIN:
We do hear this 15 Second Solo and some (Like Me) have one chance to PLAY
it! Which I did with My Army Band! I won't have another!! It was fun &
it came off Well! I did it as a FAST chromatic & some slide from low G to
3rd Space C and then SLID up (throat as I had Practiced for years) up to
the hi "C" and as a (part/time) sax player I was able to combine all of
that to do it WELL! Concert Hall with 2,000 people! Good Experience!
