Program Notes
A march dedicated to the city of Spencer, IA, where the composer lived for a summer while working as a music director for the Spencer Community Theatre. The march is modeled closely on traditional Sousa marches but also includes personal touches such as a large train whistle, intended to imitate the persistent Iowan train whistles that the composer heard every day in Spencer.
