This ballad is gorgeous. Again, the staging for it is phenomenal. The back and forth between the trumpet and bari looks as though they are having fun with it. They love this book they've ben given.
Staging is improving this second half. Mallets are playing some great segments. Love the whole group dance in the back during the vocalized portion. Radiating out from teh back corner
Brass is doing a lot for this show, but I think some visual elements are just thrown in there to be there (flags in back field). Big sabre toss on the silence.
