I have posed this question by e-mail to a Sousa archivist and to a member of the Dallas Wind Symphony, who has a Sousa home page. I will let you all of you know when I find out who this teacher might be. I'm not sure why this interests me since I'm not much for Sousa. It probably has to do with the fact that I was a trombone/euphonium player, who spent many hours playing "band" music, and now, in my 30's, I have an incredible love for the music of Bruckner and Brahms. Recently, I heard the Naxos release of Sousa's stage music and was surprised of the difference between this and his marches. I will refer the Zephyr Sousa Series to a Sousa fan I know, namely, my father, which probably has more to do with why I don't much like Sousa! "Stuart Karow" <[log in to unmask]>
