Gayle Force must be played in a spirited and exciting manner. Keeping the tempo upbeat and lively will add to the overall effectiveness of the composition. Accents and articulations are very important throughout the piece. The director must pay attention to the dynamics and make sure that important lines are not covered. The rim shots should be played as notated. The ostinato rhythm beginning in measure 26 should be articulated as written. Care should be taken to make sure that the melody is always heard and never covered. Measure 87 serves as the climatic point of the piece; make sure that the young musicians play with a well-balanced and controlled sound.
