Program Notes
Best known throughout the United States for his Barnhouse Publishing Company, Charles Barnhouse began his music career as a cornetist and composer. The publishing company came about partly because he had worked as a machinist and was able to fashion his own engraving tools. Barnhouse continued to compose and arrange even after starting the company. Idaho is best known as a fast paced circus march and just one of about fifty marches he composed along with many other works.

An unsourced newspaper article in the possession of the C.L. Barnhouse Company entitled "Idaho March - Barnhouse Dedicates March to Prof. Gordon of Caldwell Band - Caldwell Band Getting Famous" indicates that Barnhouse intended to dedicate the march to the Caldwell, Idaho, band director in return for "past favors." The article includes a letter from Barnhouse to Gordon dated June 20, 1906. This dedication is likely the origin of the title of this march.
