Of Elgar's five Pomp %26 Circumstance Marches, the first in D is the best known (as it includes Land of Hope and Glory) followed closely by this one, number 4 in G. The origin of the title of these marches is a speech in Shakespeare's 'Othello':
O now, for ever/ Farewell the tranquil mind! farewell content!/ Farewell the plumed troops and the big wars/
That makes ambition virtue!/ O farewell!/ Farewell the neighing steed and the shrill trump,/
The spirit-stirring drum, th' ear-piercing fife,/ The royal banner, and all quality,/
Pride, pomp, and circumstance of glorious war!
This arrangement has been made to make it more accessible to the average orchestra; the instruments marked with an asterisk in the orchestration list above may be omitted if necessary.
Duration: 5 minutes
A PACK comprises one full score, string parts 4/4/3/4/2 and any wind, brass and percussion parts.
