Summer concert video w/ Vienna Phil and a little Prokofiev.
Have a listen:

Is Mark Gaal playing this down an octave? The smirk on the second trombonist's face at 42:08 sorta confirms it.
If so, it's good to see he's having a little deviant summer pops fun. Even with the VPO. We are everywhere.

Name checks out!
Actually, I think that's the tuba you're hearing. It's live so who knows what mic placement is like. That is SUCH a fun piece either way!

Great shot of the horns' double piston "Vienna valves" (Pumpenvalven) in action at 41:30!

Amen on the horns. Some years ago I sat onstage about 10 feet behind the VPO horns for a performance of Don Juan. That’ll change your life! The clarity of sound and variety of articulation was stunning.

BTW, here's why I thought he was being subversive. About 1:10 into this clip from a Phil Blech Wien concert. Pardon the antique party-line cell phone video quality:
