The pulse in the opening measures continues through most of Country March. The emphasis (accented tenuto) on beat four sets the tone for the remainder of the piece. At m. 17, the ensemble should play p against the solo (or soli) violin. The emphatic opening figures give way to a broader interpretation at mm. 33 through 56. Attention to dynamics will only enhance the contrast between the two sections.The pulse in the opening measures continues through most ofA Country March.

This lively march comes to us from one of Holst's most popular works, the First Suite in E flat for Military Band written in 1909. Two contrasting themes-a crisp, marcato in D and a lyrical, legato theme in G-thrill listeners. The powerful finale of the march, back in D, uses both melodies layered on top of one another. The lyrical section features the cellos and violas and all parts are interesting.

This lively march theme introduces beginning players to percussive col legno bowing techniques; rests before and after the col legno section allow sufficient time for players to adjust their bow grip. The piano part in each set is optional, but Caponegro says that use of the percussion part for snare drum, bass drum, and cymbals is mandatory for establishing a convincing march style. If directors do incorporate percussion instruments as he suggests, however, they must play at a dynamic level that doesn't overwhelm the strings.

This upbeat march was originally composed for band in 1901 by John Klohr and has since become a popular concert and circus march. Once again, the creative talents of James Res McLeod provides a wonderful arrangement, perfectly suited for High School string players.

This original by one of the industry's top writers begins as a leisurely chorale that tunefully moves into a march. Extensive doubling of the 2nd Violin and viola parts allows directors to move more players to the 1st violin part. Along similar lines, the bass and cello parts are identical. The optional percussion part (2 copies included) for snare drum, bass drum and crash cymbals complements the march style nicely. Duration 2:40 (without optional repeat). Available in SmartMusic.

Subtitled March of the Gibaros (Peasants), this is one of the finest works ever written by pianist/composer Louis Gottschalk. In this adaptation for student strings, players must make a clean distinction between the melodic and accompaniment elements. The overall dynamic scheme will also require attention since this programmatic music depicts a passing procession (soft to loud to soft as the parade approaches and departs). With the exception of two chordal sections, driving rhythms are typical. Duration ca. 2:30. Available in SmartMusic.
