This lively, intermediate woodwind quartet digital download arrangement by Mark A. Craig / Craig Music Publishers of John Philip Sousa's iconic march, "The Washington Post," is perfect for recitals, contests, competitions, patriotic concerts, Americana events, pops concerts, or background dinner music gigs. It is a short, engaging piece that can break up a long program and give the ears a brief hiatus from some of the heavier pieces on the program.

This arrangement was written for professional, college, and advanced high school ensembles. I have included an alternate bass clarinet in lieu of a missing bassoon. This classic American march, named after the venerable newspaper, is a patriotic favorite and will invoke memories of favorite American pastimes with your audiences. Originally scored for a full concert band, I hope you enjoy this unique setting of a classic Sousa American march for winds.
