It's also interesting when composers not only give vital roles to 2nd 
baritone/horn/back row but also to the 3rd and 4th solo cornets. Philip 
Sparke's music makes full usage of the front row in pieces such as Harmony 
Music, Partita and Variations on an Enigma giving 3rd and 4th down plenty to 
get their teeth into.

Just goes to show you don't always have to be a principal player - but I 
agree it depends on the music that the band is playing!
