Here I am on Euphonium, along with Rob Stattel and Ian Cox. We're playing
Bugler's Holiday, by Leroy Anderson. I think it sounds a
heck of a lot better on euphonium than on trumpet!!!
This is pretty recent, recorded live at a
Lehman College Band concert on 10/26/2003.
The file is about 4 Meg, in mp3 format.

Here's a demo I did for the Tappan Zee Bridgemen, one of the area's premier marching bands. Leader Bill Losier did the trumpet
and flugel parts, Jim Sheridan on drums, and me on everything else! I did the french horn part on bass trumpet, 3 trombone
parts, and tuba. The tune is a Maynard Ferguson favorite, "Brass Machine!"

Here is the mighty Bottom Line Tuba Quartet, beautifully recorded by Greg Squires and Squires productions, done in the recital
hall at SUNY Purchase. I'm on 1st euph, the quiet, yet mischievous Rob Stattel on 2nd, unceasing tuba advocate Josh Mandel
on F tuba, and the renowned Andy Seligson on CC tuba. Oh yeah, it's my arrangement of
"Our Love Is Here To Stay!"
The file is about 4 Meg, in mp3 format.

This is me as soloist with the Lehman College Band, playing "Seascape"
by the late composer, Alfred Reed. It's not a really flashy, technical solo, but it shows off the singing, smooth quality
of the euphonium.
Seascape/ Alfred Reed, 9.9G
Here's another euphonium solo with the Lehman College Band, this time it's "Variations," by Jerry Owen. This is a fun,
jazz-influenced piece that was written for the late jazz euphoniumist, Rich Matteson. Listen closely at the end, you'll hear
the death-defying high G, I just thought it worked better than the written note, I think it was a B natural. This is a big
file, just under 11G!
