Euphonium Sectionals.. during rest

Kinda bored during sectionals today.. so decided to take some pics during the 5 min rest..

Yea, my new best friend just arrived.. a mute.. for Poema..

Ok.. practise these bars.. 48-81, 137-142, 194-213, the whole of page 5, 269-279, and 362-end.. phew..

It's no fun approaching the 'storm' of Poema.. running notes all over with accelerando.. no fun for the fingers...
