This volume contains full band scores for six Sousa marches, each prepared from the first printing of the band parts and informed by Sousa's holograph and the original performance materials. The six marches—The Washington Post (1889), The Liberty Bell (1893), El Capitan (1896), The Stars and Stripes Forever (1896), Sabre and Spurs (1918), and George Washington Bicentennial (1930)—span Sousa's career, from his tenure as leader of the United States Marine Band (1880–92) to his years conducting his own, commercial ensemble (1892–1932). Also included in the volume is an essay reexamining Sousa's biography, source materials, performance practice, and place in American culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContents:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Washington Post\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Liberty Bell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEl Capitan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Stars and Stripes Forever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSabre and Spurs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeorge Washington Bicentennial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"A-R Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46242710552655,"sku":"MU21\/A069","price":227.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/ac2ccdf98c9d1acd72b90c89d334189a.jpg?v=1785162498","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/zh\/products\/sousa-6-marches-ar","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
