Yes. This is so true and yet when one does an
arrangement for solo instrument and band, there is
always the moaning and whining of what will I do with
my drum line. If they have nothing to do they will
cause problems in rehearls.

Boggles the mind that these ID-TEN-T types can't
figure out that they should start with full band and
proceed to the smaller ensembles last.

But, anyway, I am happy to read your words and hope
others will be happy with them also.
