Hi Steve,
                The original piccolo part I have is in D and as you say 
it differs from the Picou  or Johnny Dodds solos  except for the 
beginning. I'd like to see the whole 1901 arrangement as I only have 
the piccolo part. Is it possible? There is a second story that Piccolo 
player Bab Frank was really the composer of the so called Picou 
adaptation of the piccolo part.
best wishes
Dan Hardie
