Description
The “March King” meets one of the world’s most innovative brass band arrangers in this high-octane setting of The Stars and Stripes Forever. Peter Graham has adapted John Philip Sousa’s most iconic march specifically for the sound and technical capabilities of the British-style brass band. From the opening bold fanfare to the legendary piccolo solo (expertly transcribed for the soprano cornet), this arrangement maintains the patriotic energy of the original while adding a fresh, professional polish. It is a must-have finale or encore for any concert.
Difficulty 3
(Medium) Fourth year players, or junior high-level students may require these arrangements to be properly challenged. These generally have free use of syncopation as well as section and solo scoring. Cues and cross cues will also be used less.
