This piece is considered the first composition strictly designated for a brass quintet. Dan Leavitt received an original publication dated 1911 from the late Dr. Murray Blumenthal and made this note for note transcription. A must for every brass quintet. The E-flat alto horn part has been transposed for horn in F. This version is easy to read and has convenient page turns.
