The arrangement was done from the original piano score and because of the constant playing, I decided to share most of the work among extra players. The melody is handled by the trumpets and every 16 measures, they trade off. This is also true for the Horns and Trombones. The Tuba part is not as constant than the others. There are sections where everyone has their individual parts so in those sections,you have the complete ensemble playing different parts, giving the arrangement the feel of a small group within a large group.
If you are looking for something different and less known than Scott Joplin, check this one out. I think it is very fine Rag for a Brass Choir.
