Gold Medal March

Composed for second-year players, Paul Murtha masterfully adapts the traditional military march form for young players. The first strain is carried by trumpets and upper woodwinds, while the low brass take the lead on the second strain. After a brief percussion break, the legato trio melody features the woodwind section. A call-and-response break strain is followed by the full band on the rousing finish. Keep the march alive with this marvelous piece!
