Musicology:

The Beau Ideal
Year: 1893
Genre: Other Orchestral
Pr. Instrument: Concert Band

This work is a proudly strutting march. The main section's first part takes an interesting turn to the minor mode, and its second part features some imitation of the melody by the bass line. The trio extends the work's general mood, and the outspoken and emphatic break strain turns to the minor mode.
