Taylor (A0.1083914).What Stars and Stripes is to the USA, Old Comrades is to Europe. This great old march written before WW1 is not very playable by the average school band. I made a more playable arrangement of it by starting in Eb and going to Ab at the trio instead of the original Db to Gb. I wrote a new countermelody to the first strain that was not so high, took out the grace notes and removed many of the repeats. It is still almost too long, but it is now very playable. The key is the ability to play the dotted 8th 16th and not triplets. Make this very crisp, marcato and separated. Enjoy.
