The Bare Necessities
First heard in the original 1967 movie, this familiar tune is featured again in the blockbuster 2016 version.

Every section of the band gets into the act, however, including a solo or soli for tuba, and a brief slower section for a Dixieland combo leading to the rousing finish. A guaranteed highlight on any concert.SKU: HL04004779
