My Choice - John Philip Sousa: Washington Post March

[brooksiefan]

THANK YOU!

A wonderful choice, and a superb rendition. Brass heavy with that fat tuba and bright winds, pure American tempo. Many of these marches are played WAY too fast. 120 beats per minute, the american military regular march cadence, is the proper rendering and really brings out the magnificence of Sousa's dynamics.

A really great march and one that our local band enjoys playing for parades and concerts. Well chosen pictures Alfred. Thanks for posting this one.

@gfks11 I sent my reply to you Judie, instead of John :)) Grazie per i complimenti. Sousa era un grande compositore. Le sue marcie sono bellissime. Saluti.
