Anyone who wants to hear really good band organ renditions of Karl King
marches should visit a COAA Rally and look for "Trudy," David Wasson's
scratch-built organ.  David has arranged (and recorded on CD) at least
sixteen marches by King and, of course, lots of other marches.

The catch, of course, is you would need a clone of Trudy to play the
arrangements, as-is.  Since Trudy is fully chromatic in her 12-note
bass and other divisions, considerable hacking would be needed to fit
the music onto a Wurlitzer organ.

Karl King, David, and I all play(ed) baritone horn (a.k.a. euphonium);
so we know our countermelodies.  And if you hit the COAA rally on the
right evening, you'll hear David, me, and several others playing the
marches along with Trudy, in the original keys.

But it's true what Stephen Goodman said about the 1st cornet score: our
local band leader often conducts us from just that.
