Mount Carmel 2007 Parade March : Washington Grays

wow you guys are just wonderful!

This is the best recording of Washington Grays by a H.S. Band I have heard. For them to do so well ON THE MARCH says a lot for their music program. Their Eb cornet players are among the best. They should be proud!

I'd like to know where Mt. Carmel is. The band is great.

@michaelorwin Great formation, posture, musicianship, tempo etc.--------THE COMPLETE PACKAGE!! Whoever runs this music program is doing one hell of a good job! Hats off to one of the finest H.S. Bands in the nation

i ve a version from a record of 1930's. The music sounds more dynamic. Im not so fond of the modern interpretation of the march.

Or at least the American ones.

Grafulla composed Washington Greys in 1861 for the 8th Regiment, New York State Militia. It breaks the old formulas because it has no introduction, no break strain, and no stinger.

I believe claudio grafulla wrote this march Bob M

@rmorecook When a high school band can play a march of this difficulty musically ON THE MARCH, it says a lot about their music program.
