Program Notes
A Santa Cecilia is an Italian march, written from St. Cecilia, the patron saint of music. Unlike the marches of John Philip Sousa, Karl King and Henry Fillmore, Italian marches are usually lyrically and moderately slow. This march is a fine example of the significant contributions that Italians have made to American wind band music.
