Alfred Reed needs no introduction for those who admire his distinguished concert band works. This arrangement for concert band draws from five movements of his original 28 composed for brass quintet based on London Bridge Is Falling Down. Included are: Statement, Waltz, March Fo(u)rth!, A Little Funeral Music, Please (Eine Kleine Trauermusik), and Finale. A demonstration of compositional techniques practiced during the past three centuries, the work is filled with captivating and highly musical moments. Even though players will encounter a few changes in tonal centers, meters, and tempo throughout, there is not much that would get in the way of having a fun experience learning and performing. (2:45).

A magnificent contest overture combining sensitive scoring with memorable melodies. The opening fanfare and processional leads to an andante section featuring lyrical solo passages that are not technically demanding. A variation of the opening theme brings the band to a powerful and triumphant conclusion.
