Congratulations! Your concert was definitely worth the travel.

For those who weren't there, Margaret Thornhill and Jeff Lewis debated
whether a basset horn's sound is "caramel" or "distant". :-)

I am curious about the "Mack the Knife" arrangement. Was the original
score at the same tempo and 'mood' as the arrangement? I am so
accustomed to the Bobby Darin, Louis Armstrong, Lotte Lenya, etc
versions that I can't help wondering what Weill wrote originally?
