True that, mvax. I played both the trumpet and baritone. When I played the baritone, the instruction, stated before all - including the trumpet section - was to play the countermelody. Our conductor lasted two years.

@tthomaselli2 It is John Phillip Sousa ... Played this song in H.S. and unless they copied the name wrong on the sheet music it's him.



You Americans are damn lucky to have such patriotic talent on your side of the border. I'm Canadian. We have some of the best musical talent in the world up hear, thing is, none of them do music like this. This is great stuff, very patriotic. We most of our Military music from the damn Brits. You must be very proud. Good on you all!
