[@edwardswanzey7595]

One of the very best bands in the world. Listen to their phrasing and dynamics. The clarity and precision knock me out!

[@pianoplayrpiano99]

This was my favorite march to play, ever. Killer clarinet part!

[@johnchown839]

Great March. Performed it with my HS band . Good festival march

[@konicsection]

it sounds victorious, with elements of triumphant.

Sounds More Like Barney And Friends Than A Historical Military March Im Sorry It Just Does And I Love It

I've played two arrangements of this. In 2000 John R. Bourgeois published an arrangement. The horns have the melody in the intro. Go horns !!!

[@LyleFrancisDelp]

Col. Bourgeois' edition is based on the original European version, not the American arrangement, and I think it's much better.

[@robbruce2128]

Who made this arrangement? Quite different from the very popular Swearingen version, but very enjoyable.

[@ethanpederson]

This is the original.

[@jonwaite2132]

Interesting, not his published arrangement...I like the trumpet counter melody which does not appear in the HL version.

[@LyleFrancisDelp]

We played this from the original European parts, not the American arrangement that was recorded by Fennell and Eastman, and I think this original version sounds better....more "continental".
