original concert march that is easy to play but does
not sound easy. The percussion section has a fun
and interesting part. The first trumpets' highest

break. A nice little march for younger bands!

4 March of CentipedesThom Sharp. Invoking
the image of a band of centipedes marching down
the street in band uniforms, struggling to keep all
their legs in step, this piece is an excellent way to
introduce your students to sixteenth notes. With
a pair of alternate fingerings taught to the alto
saxophones, most of the sixteenth-note passages
are repetitive and playable with the movement of
only a single finger. Brilliant and tremendous fun!
