by E. E. Bagley , and arranged for flute choir / ensemble by me, Ray-Michael Kauffman.
Dedicated to flutist and friend Jenny Rhodes Fritsch.

This great little March, considered by multiple historical and patriotic American music groups, to be one of the top American pieces of music.
This piece is arranged smartly, and to be fun for your flutist group and for all audiences to enjoy as well. Great for program music, summer music , march music, early 20th century music, cake walks, reminisces music for audiences, fun to place in between "serious /stuffy pieces", or just to have fun with.
A piece that can be used for lots of occasions and events, and Holiday programs whether Flag Day, Memorial Day, July Fourth, etc.
Definitely a piece your group will come back to every year !

thanks for checking this arrangement out , and visit me on the web @ www.doRaymeflute.com

This remarkable arrangement is set in the style of a Dixieland Funeral, beginning with a warm and moving chorale which leads into a lively and exciting fast section during which the traditional melody is accompanied by newly composed counter-melodies. All instruments in the ensemble are featured making it as enjoyable for the performers as it is for the audience. It is suitable for myriad occasions both secular and sacred.
