The Voice of a Departing Soul

Description

Here is your opportunity to recreate one of the most important moments in the history of the concert band. Patrick Sarsfield Gilmore, father of the American concert band, had just passed away. Sousa hurriedly arranged this work and opened the very first concert by his band with the tribute. Skillfully edited by Loras John Schissel, this appears in print for the first time ever.
