One of the most
distinctive of marches,
VALDRES has been
described as a petite
Norwegian tone-poem set
in march-time. Loras
Schissel's splendid new
arrangement of the famous
Norwegian march Valdres
was created by blending
several concert versions
of the piece that were
created by composer
Johannes Hanssen during
the last years of his
life. Perfect for concert
or contest use, this
superior edition should
be in the library of all
good bands!
