Sousa Festival in DC this weekend

Post by MileMarkerZero »

Anyone else going to be there?

East Tennessee Concert Band Program (as best I remember it):

Sparke - Barn Dance and Cowboy Hymn
Sousa - Looking Upward Suite, 1st mvmt
Maillart - Les Dragoons des Villars
Gould - Yankee Doodle
Daehn - Irish Trilogy
unk. arr. - Tennessee Waltz

Free concert is 4 p.m. at the Schlesinger Concert Hall in Alexandria, VA ($6 parking, of course). Other community bands will be performing all afternoon as well.
SD

I am convinced that 90% of the problems with rhythm, tone, intonation, articulation, technique, and overall prowess on the horn are related to air issues.
