This arrangement of God Bless America is written with the young marching band in mind. Ranges chosen to project loudly while outdoors and optional divisi for added depth, harmonies, and exciting high sounds. The "MWI Orchestration" thoughtfully organizes your marching band into three parts and a drumline, making rehearsal as streamlined as possible. Instruments are placed in groupings that continue throughout the composition, so they always perform the same part, without trading roles. Parts are written with memorization in mind and printed on full pages for easy reading. 

MWI Orchestration:
Part 1 (lead line): Flute, Alto Sax, Trumpet
Part 2 (harmony and secondary lead): Clarinet, Tenor Sax, French Horn
Part 3 (bassline): Bass Clarinet, Bari Sax, Low Brass, Tuba
Drumline: Snare, Tri Toms, Quad Toms, Bass Drum, Cymbals

Marching Band Score & Parts

This collection is intended as a supplemental companion to the Clearwater Band Method Book 1. These carefully crafted chorales were designed with the extreme beginning band members in mind. All of the following chorales are homophonic, using unison rhythms only: Whole, Half, Dotted Half, and Quarter Notes. Students have access to all three parts so teachers are able to quickly experiment with various balance and listening opportunities that feature may provide. 

As an added component, all chorales are also provided in a chart format, utilizing scale degrees. You may find studying chorales without traditional music notation quite useful and the extra bonus of easily transferring material to new keys as your students progress.

Phase 1: Chorales 1-2
Two Voices
Concert Bb, C, D, Eb, and F

Phase 2: Chorales 3-6
Three Voices
Concert A, Bb-F, G

Phase 3: Chorales 7-8
Mid-Piece Fermatas

Phase 4: Chorales 9-10
Pickup Notes
Accidentals
Minor Tonality and Secondary Dominance

Percussionists may be given either the C Instrument part or the Advanced Percussion part, which uses two voices as an opportunity to develop their double-stop technique.
