Nothing like a Gullidge March. Band Master of Brunswick, Melbourne, Salvation Army Band which joined up to Australian Army as 2/22nd band and posted to Rabaul, where most were lost when Japanese invaded. Some lost when Ship they were being transported to Japan as Prisoners of War was torpedoed by American submarine. A great loss to Salvation Army music, but his music still being played today. Lest we forget.
Wonderful minimalist conducting. He clearly trains the band well and lets them play, only adding important transitions, emphases, and tempo when necessary. His lack of conducting ego is remarkable.

Where has it been hiding?
Not really been hiding, you have Melbourne Staff Band and may be New York Staff band playing this from Arthur Gullidge.
Wonderful minimalist conducting. He clearly trains the band well and lets them play, only adding important transitions, emphases, and tempo when necessary. His lack of conducting ego is remarkable.
