Description
The main theme from Elgar’s most famous march (Land of Hope and Glory) arranged for young players. Also known as the Graduation March (arising from its first use for this purpose at Harvard)
This arrangement is suitable for school orchestras and ensembles. The arrangement allows for a great deal of flexibility in presentation and will sound complete with as few as four players yet the scoring allows for expansion up to a full symphonic orchestra, concert band or brass band
As with all music available from Opus 3 Music this arrangement has been well tried and tested in performance
