Program Notes
Here’s a classic march from the pen of C. L. Barnhouse, expertly arranged for the “Build-A-Band” series by Anthony Susi. Carefully crafted for flexible and limited instrumentations, this sparkling march sounds every bit as exhilarating as the original. The extended minor key introduction and unique format makes it stand out from other 19th century American marches.
