Men of Harlech

Description

Men of Harlech is a folksong from Wales. It is a stirring and bold march that shows off the power of this ensemble consisting of 12 trumpets and timpani. It opens with 4 offstage trumpets playing some calls which moves into an onstage chorale setting of the piece. It gradually builds to a terrific ending with all 12 trumpets heralding. This piece is not too difficult (range is only to B-flat) and would be well received on a high school or college level concert.
