The world of marches covers the full range from funeral march to screamer. Finding the right tempo for each is particularly important. I'm sad to observe the tradition of marches suffering a long decline in school bands around here - both on stage and on the street.

I always loved competitive parade band. At its best a parade band is a fine concert band in motion.

There is so much to learn about music in general from playing a good march well. It really should be a required part of any band curriculum.
