That's Entertainment

@gordon That's Entertainment. Selections from the Greatest Show on Earth?
-
We haven't done "That's Entertainment" in forever. Still the best!
A few years ago we opened the second half with "Also Sprach Zarathustra", which is a close second!

I'm going with "That's Entertainment" too. We used it quite a bit though and after listening to it recently realized we played it at a break-neck speed!

@gordon
My favourite? Moravian Dance! Followed by Summon the Heros (Jay Bocook arrangement), Bolero, The Maker's Mark: Overture, and Gee, Officer Krupke. I loved playing all of these! -
I have to agree with Ray (even though not a BCB piece) - The Opener.
-
@lisa-yl ah...
There is no mention for the choice to be BCB specific... so these are pieces which I played with RHLI Regimental band (although I did manage to get several pieces in our repertoire... and hopefully more).
