Letter Sized Score. Composed by Chris Kamerling. Concert Band Series. Concert Marches. Letter Sized Score. Published by Print Music Source (P3.B150118PFS).Galla Creek March is in traditional march form and is a stately rhythmic march in the true classic march tradition. The march was written to celebrate the small town of Pottsville, in the north-central region of Arkansas. Pottsville is like so much of small-town America where family,church and basic American vaues are still the focus. Pottsville was settled by the Potts family. Kirkbride Potts, a young bachelor,came to Arkansas by covered wagon from his home in New Jersey in the early 1800's. There he met and married a pioneer's daughter, Pamela Logan and settled in Pope County. Their home (the Potts Inn) eventually became a stop on the Butterfield Stagecoach route between the east and west coasts. Since it was an established travel route, it became a railroad depot (Galla Station) as the inter-continental railroad was completd. Galla Creek was the local waterway serving the area.
