American Patrol - Frank W. Meacham

"American Patrol" is a popular march written by Frank White Meacham in 1885. It incorporates both original musical themes by Meacham and melodies from American patriotic songs of the era such as "Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean" and "Dixie." The "patrol" format was popular in the second half of the 19th century. The format was intended to represent a military band approaching, passing, and fading into the distance.

"American Spectacular" presents many patriotic favorites in a shimmering arrangement by Rob Romeyn! The opening features brief snippets from many patriotic favorites before moving into "The Battle Cry of Freedom", "When Johnny Comes Marching Home", a particularly sensitive and creative treatment of "Shenandoah", and a fresh up-tempo treatment of "The Star-Spangled Banner".
