Took me nearly 40 years to find a recording of this after practicing it for a 7th grade UIL Concert Band competition in Falfurrias, Texas with band director Mr. Manchaca back around 1972. Even back then I thought the melodies had a pop music sound and I still do at 52.
Wow! It sounds even better than I remembered especially with such a good recording and played right. Looked on Amazon for a CD and got nothing. Dang!
my band is playing this for a competition in May. then our director told us she is retiring this year. this is what she played her senior year in high school. then our marching band show was the same as her first show she ever wrote. i'm a junior. so new director my senior year. woopie.
Jager wrote this just to piss Revelli off. He couldn't conduct odd meters like in the 2nd movement.
