Description:
Created for the Philadelphia-based Lyra Ensemble; Erik Meyer's adaptation of Sousa's greatest march (a celebrated favorite for piccolo players) is both faithful to the original work and freshly inventive in texture. Scored for four piccolos; it is a sure crowd-pleaser; whether in a printed program or as a surprise encore. Meyer's arrangement provides unique consideration to all four players; rotating which parts carry the lead; counterpoint; and bass line. This charming piccolo quartet is appropriate for high school through professional levels.
