Seven piece wind ensemble, "Town Band" playing the stock arrangement (so to speak).

John, this link connects to Town Band's performance of "Sempre Libera," which is also very fine.

By checking out your other YouTube uploads, "The Annihilator" can be found. Excellent transcription and performance:

Busted!

Thanks Steve.

Fred W. Clement composed the march. Our band has a lot of public domain music, and some of my own settings.

I made the arrangement of Sempre Libera myself. My wife Lori plays alto saxophone in our septet but I left her out on this one for an experiment. It was a good idea, her conducting helped a lot.

Our normal instrumentation is SS, AS, TP, HN (covering the euphonium parts) TB, TB, TU.
