Composed by Arthur Willard Pryor. Arranged by George Willson. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and parts. 45 pages. George Willson #4408726. Published by George Willson (A0.927170).One of many marches penned by John Philip Sousa's principal trombonist and virtuoso, Arthur Pryor, this arrangement revises the original 1906 version heavily for the modern concert band. This simple piece follows the most basic march form with four repeated sixteen bar strains: two before and two after the key change trio. The Db Piccolo is transposed and expanded to the modern piccolo and two flutes. five clarinet parts (including the Eb) are reduced to the standard three. Eb altos are transposed for F Horn and given a bit of melody in the third strain. Many other changes scattered throughout the piece update it for the modern band while staying true to the original and breathe some new life into an old and forgotten march.
George Willson has been an performer, composer, and conductor for thirty years in various mediums and ensembles.
Mp3 provided is a midi extracted from the composition program.
