Fantasy on a March
With frequent changes between major and minor, the stirring march themes reappear as romantic melodies. Of special interest are the trumpet and piano solos, and a section for oboe, clarinet, horn, bassoon and piano, in homage to Mozart and Beethoven, who wrote beautiful quintets for this combination of instruments.
I don’t have a good recording of a band performance but you can listen to the piece arranged for wind quintet and piano: 1st movement of Sextet for Winds and Piano.
