:) Okay okay okay.....

I know half of you are thinking "What on earth is a Euphonium?!?" :P Its a musical instrument. And us brass players are very particular about our instruments, we love them to death!! :hug:

Sooooo.... I'm requesting to get one for mikeyp!! *please* Cos he plays the Euphonium and i think it would be nice for him to have one. And i'm sure there maybe others out there who play it too (i do, when I'm not playing my trombone, they are alot of fun! :D ) oh and they can also double as a small tuba :)

Name: Euphonium
Cost: 1500
Description: For the lower brass player

Maybe you could flip the picture so the mouth piece is pointed towards the face, and it sits in the arm that its bent, size-wise it should go from about the cheeks to the hip of the character =)

Hi Woody,

The April 15 "To Be Considered" list is one we're still working on. I think you'll hear something soon about this request.

. . . it's one of the instruments in '76 Trombones'!

76 TROMBONES(c)1957 M. Willson

Seventy six trombones led the big parade
With a hundred and ten cornets close at hand
They were followed by rows and rows of the finest virtuosos;
the cream of every famous band.

Seventy six trombones caught the morning sun
With a hundred and ten cornets right behind
There were more than a thousand reeds springing up like weeds,
There were horns of every shape and kind

There were copper bottom tympani in horse platoons
Thundering, thundering, all along the way
Double bell euphoniums and big bassoons
Each bassoon having his big fat say

There were fifty mounted cannon in the battery
Thundering, thundering, louder than before
Clarinets of every size and trumpeters who'd improvise
A full octave higher than the score

Seventy six trombones hit the counter point
While a hundred and ten cornets played the air
To the rhythm of 'Harch Harch Harch!'
All the kids began to march
And they're marching still, right today

Now, if we get all of the instruments in the song into armory, we could then organize our own boys (and girls) band!

4th of July is right around the corner.

Come on people, we can make this happen!

You're very welcome! I was amazed that the euphonium turned out to be shaped so that the character can actually "play" it.
