Utsunomiya is the capital of Japan's Tochigi Prefecture and is about 100 km north of Tokyo, about an hour on the bullet train. When the Utsunomiya Brass Society, a talented and versatile group of brass players formed in 1978, asked Philip Sparke to compose a signature march to celebrate their 30th anniversary, they asked for a bright and breezy march which they could use to open concerts. Jubiloso is written in the same style as Sparke's Slipstream and The Bandwagon, with heavily syncopated melodies and a conventional cantabile trio section, but also contains sudden bars of unusual meter that “trip up†the march rhythm.

Watch Your Step! was commissioned by Stadtmusik Biel from Switzerland and is dedicated to the mayor of Biel/Bienne, Erich Fehr. The title was chosen to represent Biel as the watch-making capital of Switzerland. Watch Your Step! is one part of a series of 'up tempo' Sparke marches such as Slipstream, The Bandwagon and Jubiloso. After a bright opening, a syncopated first theme is played, firstly by clarinets and saxophones, and then by the full band. A bass strain is followed by a contrasting second subject, which is played twice. The bass melody returns to herald a truncated version of the main theme, before the opening fanfare reappears as a coda.
