    Thanks very much for posting this, David. I've often wondered what it would take to get into one fo the service bands. Now I start practicing...for my next lifetime.

    The audition packet for this is now available as a free download. I was pleased to note that it contains an excerpt from my special arrangement of the Argeggione Sonata by Schubert!
