Aspire, AchieveJeanne Vultaggio. Young
musicians will thrill at their achievement when
they perform this regal-sounding work. Minimal
eighth notes, careful doubling and only six pitches
allow beginners and ensembles with incomplete
instrumentation to sound good. Whether performed
as a bold concert work or a graduation march, it will
be very impressive!

l Cape Breton MarchJohn O'Reilly. Dedicated
to a wildly beautiful island on the northeast coast of
North America and the Scottish settlers of the region,
this spritely, syncopated march reflects the rich Celtic
musical tradition of fiddlers, drummers, pipers, and
singers and keeps that music alive today.

H Forward March!Paul Murtha. Here's a
snappy little march that your drummers are just
going to love! They get a spotlighted percussion
break, and there's also a nice "trio" melody
for clarinets, strong melodic writing with easy
counterlines and a strong full band finish. Bright,
invigorating and reminiscent of some of the
great classical marches, this is a strong choice
for your beginners!

Story. Composed in 1886 by "The March King"
himself, this familiar bold march is a real treat.
Retaining Sousa's original intent, the theme
incorporates light staccato notes in addition to full-
value quarter notes, all in the appealing march style
for which he's so well known. A great teaching and

l Gold Medal MarchPaul Murtha. Composed
for second-year players, Paul Murtha masterfully
adapts the traditional military march form for
young players. The first strain is carried by
trumpets and upper woodwinds, while the low
brass take the lead on the second strain. After
a brief percussion break, the legato trio melody
features the woodwind section. A call-and-
response break strain is followed by the full band
on the rousing finish. Keep the march alive with
this marvelous piece!

suite this comes from is one of the first pieces written
exclusively for military bands. This arrangement is

lyrical melody reminiscent of British folk music. This
accomplished setting brings this cherished work

n March of the Hyperion GuardsRobert
Sheldon. This march for young band was inspired
by the bronze-clad warriors of video game notoriety.
Beginning ominously in a minor key, the tuneful
main theme leads to a contrasting relative major
section in the style of a British march. The piece
ends by returning to the original minor key for
its dramatic conclusion. A wonderful choice for
directors looking for a different type of march!

4 March of the Lava FieldsAndrew Poor. This
work begins with a slow and ominous feel. As the
tension builds, the momentum of the lava begins
to accelerate and grow in intensity until it finally
crashes into the surrounding roads and villages.
Brake drum, vibraslap and tam-tam add to the
dramatic nature of the work. A very exciting work
for young bands!
