    Fun fact: Both George Curran and Colin Williams of the New York Philharmonic used to be in the Atlanta Symphony, and their replacements are the ASO members playing in this video. As far as I know, Colin Williams moved to the NY Phil after the Atlanta Symphony had those terrible contract problems a few years ago.

    i think that unless you have played these instruments in an orchestral setting you can't understand how they establish the floor of the composition. I played bass trombone for a number of years and while we played only fleetingly, it was critical to the overall voice of the piece.
