John Philip Sousa said he wished he had written the march “Military Escort” by Henry Fillmore. And the sheet music for “Military Escort” even outsold the sheet music for the “Stars and Stripes Forever” for at least 4 years. Today’s edition off Brass, Reeds, and Percussion opens with “Military Escort” composed by the American circus-band composer Henry Fillmore. But you will also hear Darius Milhaud’s most famous composition arranged for wind ensemble, original classical wind-band music by Francois Joseph Gossec, and a wind-band arrangement of a big hit from 1922.
