n Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1Sir
Edward Elgar/trans. Retford/arr. Reed. It's easy to
see why the audience demanded two encores at
the premiere of this magnificent march! Alfred Reed
has reworked the Retford transcription (written
for British military band) to work with today's
modern concert band sonorities. Every bit of the
original, including the famous trio so often used to
accompany commencement ceremonies, is found
here in all its glory. This belongs in all band libraries!
