Sterling Brass (Concert March, Opus 42)

Bands and the compositional form known as the march have held a long and very close relationship. At one time in our musical history, even concert bands relied heavily on audience-pleasing marches to heighten the popularity of their programming. With spectacular flourish, this most gifted composer gives us a highly traditional march packed with all the ingredients that bring cheers from listeners the world over. Listen for the 'bravos'!
