Mark,
Just out of interest, what are the most popular marches ?
In the UK 'Whit Friday' contest there are three marched that all the
top bands play, and these win more prizes than any other march.
The marches are 'The President', 'Ravenswood' and 'Knight Templar'
Do these pop up regularly at you contest ?
Also what are the most popular Own choice pieces? Do bands have a
piece associated with them that they seem to chose every time ?
Phil Green.
