March from First Suite for Military Band

Gustav Holst’s First Suite in E-flat for Military Band, one of the first pieces written exclusively for military bands, was composed in 1909. This arrangement is based on the second theme of the march, a very lyrical melody reminiscent of British folk music. This setting brings this cherished work to the stands of your beginners. A welcomed addition to the beginning band repertoire! “The limited ranges and technical demands make this a good way to introduce students to this important work at an early age.” – The Instrumentalist This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.
