Program Note
Carousel March is a short march for concert band in the style of American march composer and bandmaster Karl
King. Because his timeless marches have been a part of my musical life as a performer, conductor, and teacher, it
feels only fitting to incorporate his influence in my compositions as well. This work is fun and achievable with
catchy melodies and bombastic flares reminiscent of old timey carnival rides.
