Program Notes

Hoch- und Deutschmeister is one of the most popular marches in the world. It is not widely known in the United States, possibly owing to its scoring, which tends to follow that of traditional German/Austrian regimental bands, including instruments such as Horn in E-flat, Tenorhorns, Fluegelhorns, and others not typically seen in American bands. This edition provides a full score, redistributes some of the parts to more common American Wind Band instrumentation, standardizes the articulations, and clarifies issues of dynamics and phrasing. It is my hope that this wonderful march – easily attainable by even young groups – can find its way into more common and frequent performance usage.
