Gold Medal March

In this piece for second-year players, Paul Murtha masterfully adapts the traditional military march form for young musicians. The first strain is carried by trumpets and upper woodwinds, while the low brass take the lead on the second strain. After a brief percussion break, the legato trio melody features the woodwind section. A “call and response” breakstrain is followed by the full band on the rousing finish. Keep the march alive with this marvelous piece! Dur: 2:50
