Tired  of  the  same  old  Sousa  marches  on  your  program?  "Marche  Lorraine",  by  French  composer  Louis  Ganne,  has  been  adapted  for  the  concert  band  from  the  original  version  for  brass  band  by  one  of  the  best  arrangers  ever,  Mark  Williams.  This  well-known  tune  will  be  a  welcome  addition  to  any  concert  or  festival  program.  Vive  la  marche!

Technical Notes: The percussion parts are for snare drum, bass drum, crash cymbals, and triangle.

Louis Ganne (1862-1923) was one of the most popular composers of operettas and ballet music in France at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. He was a student of Cesar Franck and Jules Massenet. He also wrote piano music and many marches, of which "Marche Lorraine" remains the best known. This arrangement for concert band has been adapted from the original version for brass band. All markings follow those in the original as closely as possible. The vertical wedge (or marcato) accent (^) can be interpreted as harder than the standard accent (>), with a slight bell-tone effect (a decreased dynamic after the accent). This charming turn-of-the-century French march will add a touch of class to your next concert program.
