"baritone" sighting in 60's BSO performance

[fmanola]

This topic recently came up on TubeNet, complete with a link to a (sensational!) Boston Symphony performance of the Berlioz Symphony Fantastique including a classic American bell-front "baritone" (this performance may have been noted before here, but a quick search didn't turn it up).

I'm doing this with the De Havilland (Hatfield) Orchestra (UK) shortly, we are using smaller bore lower brass throughout the sections.

I'll be on the tuba 1 part with an Imperial Euphonium, tuba 2 is an Imperial E flat tuba, and the trombones are small bore 1940/50's models. Makes a great sound!
