SOUSA, J.P.: Music for Wind Band, Vol. 10 (Royal Norwegian Navy Band, Brion)

John Philip Sousa’s tireless touring with his world-famous band and the distinctive quality of his compositions ensured legendary status and the affectionate title of ‘The March King’. This tenth volume of Sousa’s complete works for wind band under the ‘energy and precision’ (ClassicsToday.com) of Keith Brion’s directorship includes a remarkably descriptive Humoresque, the rare Jazz America fantasy from 1925, and the People in Glass Houses Suite on the subject of various varieties of alcoholic drink, complete with popping corks.
