Robert W. Smith - The Great Locomotive Chase

Difficulty: ★★★☆☆
The Great Locomotive Chase. By Robert W. Smith. (Concert Band)
I'll never forget this song. Playing this with the Secondary All-Star Band of Ottawa bring back memories of it. A song that describes a perfect setting of a train scene. Close your eyes and listen as you are about to be on a journey of a fast-pacing chase. Pay attention to the "effects" as the train accelerates...

Note: This song was inspired by the events surrounding the railway between
Atlanta and Chattanooga during the early years of the Civil War. All aboard!
