This intermediate digital download arrangement collection for clarinet quintet includes Three American Marches:
🎶Edwin E. Bagley's iconic "National Emblem March"
🎶Henry Fillmore's exhilarating "The Circus Bee," and
🎶John Philip Sousa's classic American march, "The Washington Post"
These three iconic marches are perfect for recitals, contests, competitions, patriotic concerts, Americana events, pops concerts, or background-dinner-music gigs. They are short, engaging pieces that can break up a long program and give the ears a brief hiatus from some of the heavier pieces on the program.
National Emblem March: This favorite American march brings back fond memories for many who remember it from “Miracle on 34th Street” and other films in which it appeared. Edwin E. Bagley’s iconic march has become synonymous with patriotic music, military ceremonies, and Americana celebrations. Although scored for only five clarinets, this arrangement sounds full and complete and will help you and your audiences celebrate our country during your patriotic events.
The Circus Bee: This exhilarating march is an excellent opener, closer, or encore for recitals and perfect for contests, competitions, weddings, special events, patriotic or Americana events, and educational outreach performances. The arrangement challenges groups ranging from college quintets to professional ensembles. Originally written in 1908 by Henry Fillmore, this march draws on ragtime influences and quickstep marches, featuring syncopated rhythms and striking dynamic contrasts.
The Washington Post: This patriotic march, named after the venerable American newspaper, is a perennial favorite and will evoke memories of favorite American pastimes with your audiences. This classic, upbeat march, written by John Philip Sousa in 1889 in 6/8 time, became an international hit because it was the perfect tempo for the newly introduced "two-step" dance craze. It was first premiered at the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., for President Benjamin Harrison.
These three arrangements were written for professional, college, and advanced high school ensembles. I have included an alternate Bb clarinet in lieu of a missing Eb clarinet, and also an alternate Bb clarinet part in lieu of a missing alto clarinet for all three pieces. Originally scored for a full concert band, your audiences will love these unique settings for clarinet quintet of three iconic American marches.
