I wish I that I had thought of that Josh - a really good point. Unless
someone wants to explain why Sousa was a poor composer who didn't know
what he was up to?

For the record I think Sousa was a brilliant composer of marches -
second to none in the field - and I love playing them. Difficult to do
really really well, but easy to play!

For those of you how think You can not Eb in marching bands, think
again.
