Excellence In Performance
This perennial concert favorite by Tchaikovsky has been expertly arranged for concert band by Robert Longfield. It can stand alone as a grade 3 composition, or it can be performed in a mass band setting by using the supplementary grade 1 and grade 2 sets of parts (sold separately). Percussionists will have a “blast” emulating cannon sounds and church bells. This set includes a full conductor score and a condensed mass band score. Highlights from 1812 Overture correlates with Book 3, page 30.

My high school symphonic band played this in Washington DC at the Jefferson Memorial in our 2019 trip. Symphonic band and some of our orchestra(including myself) played. I had to teach myself the oboe part bc I am in the orchestra and my teacher told me to play the written notes while others played open strings. My string teacher was proud of me for taking on the challenge(he threw me into it the DAY before we left) and the band conductor was happy that I joined him. What a good memory to have: performing at the Jefferson Memorial 😊
