Welcome back. If you do get around to it, I’d love to hear your take on Purple Carnival by Harry Alford. That’s got some really interesting TPT/ Cornet parts. I think it would be a great addition to your collection for March Mondays. Otherwise Joyce’s 71’st NY Regiment March.
History lesson for you: 75th anniversary of D-Day was in 2019, only 2 years ago, so this march wasn't written for that. This march was written in 1948. Arromanches is a French coastal town in Normandy where, after the initial invasion took place, an "artificial" harbor was built and was used thereafter as a port to unload materiel, soldiers, etc. Some 2.5 million soldiers came ashore in France during WWII at Arromanches. The composer of this march, Albert Kelly, was a soldier and took part in the invasion in 1944. Nice arrangement and playing, BTW!
Right you are! I was a part of the 75th anniversary commemoration in Canada so that’s probably what I was thinking of at the time. Thanks for catching that :)
That's absolutely beautiful!
Love this March, great to see you back!
