Description
SKU: A0.1414057
By Will Corbin. By John Philip Sousa. Arranged by Will Corbin. March. 23 pages. Will Corbin #995827. Published by Will Corbin (A0.1414057).Sousa wrote this in 1893 as part of an operetta on commission. But he and the customer couldn't agree on a price -- Sousa wanted $1,500, and the customer wouldn't go higher than $1,000 -- so Sousa walked. A march from the operetta became "The Liberty Bell." It's probably best known now as the theme song from "Monty Python's Flying Circus," pressed on the British comedy group by its only American member for reasons that are too arcane to go into or even understand.
It's arranged for two trumpets, horn, baritone TC and tuba.
If you require alternate instrumentation, I'm happy to accommodate. Contact me at wilcor@aol.com.
