The Directorate—John Philip Sousa/arr.
Lauren Taylor. Written by John Philip Sousa
in appreciation of an honor given to him by
the Board of Directors of the 1893 St. Louis
Exposition, The Directorate was one of the first
pieces that he composed for his newly formed
Sousa Band. Featuring lively wind parts,
contrasting dynamics, interesting harmonic
twists in the trio, and a rousing final strain, this
march is ideal for teaching the classic march
style. Rescored for contemporary concert
band instrumentation from Sousa's original,
this march is now ready to be discovered by a
new generation of performers.

Fiery rhythms and flowing Spanish melodies
make this one of the most famous of all the
great "paso dobles" and Robert Longfield's
exceptional new arrangement makes it real
a showstopper for band! From the opening
trumpet fanfare to the whirlwind finish, this
is perfect programming for high school

The Fencing Master—Joseph Earp.
Originally published in 1932, this rediscovered
treasure of the concert march world has been
rescored for the modern concert band. Written
in traditional march form, all sections are
featured. A pleasant opening strain moves into
an interesting trio with a legato trumpet melody
set against high woodwind arpeggios before
a more strident presentation of the same
theme. With multiple dynamic contrasts and
interesting countermelodies for all sections,
this march is a great opportunity to teach
traditional march form while also presenting a
gem of the march repertoire that is unknown to
many audiences.

Florentiner March (Grande Marcia Italiana)—
Julius Fucik/arr. Lake & Fennell. Best known
for his incomparable up-tempo march Thunder
And Blazes (Entry Of The Gladiators), Julius
Fucik has another strong contender for that
inner circle of marches. Fennell tells us it
was not meant for regimental review or street
parade but demands interpretation and a
stylistic approach. "A great and continuing
tradition in American band performance lives
on in this music."
2063113 Band Set & Score . . . . . . .110.00

shows itself to be as much at home in the
concert hall as on the parade ground!

Flying High (March)—Larry Clark. A
throwback to the old circus marches, this is a
tour de force from start to finish! This traditional
Fillmore-like march has everything you need
to teach technique and style. Perfect for any
concert program or festival adjudication - a
winning selection!
11198536 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . .85.00
Golden Panther March—Robert Sheldon. If
a traditional march could be called fresh and
new, this wonderful original would check every
box. This march in 6/8 has all the calling cards
of a traditional-style march, perfect for contest
and festival performance, with all of the modern
charm we have come to love from this beloved
composer. Brass ranges and technique are
very reasonable, and the woodwinds get to
flex their muscles. As well suited to a concert
opener as it is to an enthusiastic encore.
A must-have in every library!

march master that will sparkle on any program.

marches and is an international favorite. This
accomplished edition is based on the original
1871 Italian edition and brings new excitement
and freshness to a European classic.
2446110 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . .65.00
The Klaxon—Henry Fillmore/arr. Fennell.
Look carefully at this! It's Henry Fillmore's

several strains omitted from a previous edition.
