[topfuel567]

best march ever !

[LilMissSunshine956]

just played this song. i love how you play the ending three times. the first time is barely a whisper, the second time is normal volume, and the third and final time the brass section stands up and the sound just HITS you! awesome effect! <3

@LilMissSunshine956 but i hate that this video only has it repeat twice

[LilMissSunshine956]

@weeberz123 I know!!! That was my favorite part! booo... :(

[briski95]

i was just at all state too! loved playing this march

[ReconciIed]

We just played this peice for all-state and I have to agree with Nitnelav. The music is incredibly easy at a slow tempo, but when you're burning through the piece like that, it takes talent to keep up.

[Rimshot1994]

@ReconciIed I was at All-State as well! I'd definitely  agree with y'all. Very fun piece to play.

believe it or not, i actualy wanted my band director to tell us to get lost on purpose so it sounds like a bunch of random notes, then instantly back in time with everyone

[zumosmorph]

My high school band director passed this out, I guess hoping to play it at out Spring concert... we played it once. WAY too difficult for a small town, high school band.

that guy on the horse would be Teddy Rosevelt

[abubaby95]

We're playing this for our veterans day assembly. ^^

[bbigguy500]

note wise this is a very easy piece but boy is it hard to keep up.

[MrEuphoniumGuy]

sooooo true, were playing this weekend for contest.

[Nitnelav1994]

definatley, the actual music is pathetic, but it takes a VERY talented band to play at the proper speed and still stay together.

[coldcasefan1]

haha, my highschool band is playing this for our concert.

[JordanNightrain]

mine too :D

[Imboredandfree]

... now i feel like that guy on the horse in, " Night at the Museum !"

[Op139]

Haha! I agree. =)
