    The Boys of the Old Brigade

    Just found this interesting march on the Marine Band's website where you can download some FREE mp3 files here:
    to save mp3, right click on play or pause, then save as, etc.

    After the intro, the low brass has the melody in the first strain. The second strain the higher voices take the melody while the low brass has a counter melody (listen to the tubas). In the Trio, the euphoniums have a beautiful and challenging counter melody.

    According to the liner notes, this was recorded at the Interlochen Bowl Music Camp June, 1978; George W. Wilson, conducting.
