Marches from a new composer!

Post by Bandmaster » Fri Apr 17, 2015 12:24 am

I attended the Association of Concert Bands Convention in Sacramento, California last weekend and played with the convention band as well as the Pomona Concert Band. I sat next to a very good tuba player in the convention band made friends with him. His name is Kelly Bennette. It turns out he is the band director at Union Hill H.S. in Texas and he is composer with some 80 march titles to his credit. So I asked him send me some links to recordings of some his marches. Not all are published yet but he is slowly getting them in print. Below is a list of the titles that have quality band recordings available for listening. Enjoy, and you can contact him at his Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/kelly.bennette.1 if you interested in performing any of his marches.
