Musicology:

The Black Horse Troop
Year: 1924
Genre: Other Orchestral
Pr. Instrument: Concert Band

This march was named for the horse-mounted troops of the Cleveland National Guard. Its main section features a strutting, chatty tune in 6/8. The trio features a galloping percussion accompaniment figure under a gliding lyrical tune, and the break strain is proclamatory and fanfarish.
