An exciting piece with recurring themes, this serves as a great tool for an intermediate ensemble to work on stark dynamic contrasts. Though mostly folk-like in character, the occasional runs warrant a 4 rating. Tempo can be at the discretion of the director, but not to fall below conducting in “one.”
Probably Elgar’s best remembered and most played composition from it’s use in graduation ceremonies, this march highlights the ability of the ensemble to present contrasting expressive moods in a single piece.
This series was commissioned specifically to provide quality steel band music for beginning steel bands. The six pieces in this collection represent a variety of styles, composers and difficulty and can serve as an entire semester’s repertoire.
