4.0 out of 5 stars good recording of too-long neglected marches, March 25, 2008

By	P. Robert Maiden Mueller "Spike Maiden Müller" (Luck, WI USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Tradition: Legacy of the March Vol. IV (Audio CD)

The Texas A&M University bands, under the direction of Timothy Rhea, have been recording new editions of classic marches, many of which have been out-of-print for years. Included here in this fourth volume are such classics as American Emblem and Barnum and Bailey's Favorite, but there are also some obscure gems such as Harry L. Alford's march arrangement of the WWI song, 'The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise.' The performances are all good to very good and the recording is fine. A little more presence to the band could probably have been had without sacrificing balance and blend, but parts can be heard reasonably clearly. A very enjoyable addition to the band catalog, too long neglected. Thank you, Texas A&M!
