Boston march and quickstep - March to Boston - Boxford march - Philadelphia march - Baron Stuben's march - General Green's march - Handyside's march - General Knox's march - General Lee's march - General Wayne's march - Colonel Orne's march - Captain Lewis's march
A selection of three-part marches from Holyoke's "Instrumental Assistant", Exeter, New Hampshire, vols I (1800) and II (1807).
With the exception of Handyside's march (possibly Irish), these examples originated in America, from the 1760s onwards, but principally from within the Continental Army. From 1756 until 1815 the United States and Great Britain had a common heritage of military music; wind bands of three parts at the commencement of the period, with the the increased size becoming fashionable in the early-mid 1780s. A typical band in the U.S. and in the English provinces at the later date would comprise two clarinets (or oboes or (rarer) flutes), two horns and two bassoons; showpiece bands such as that of the Duke of York would employ clarinets and oboes, with further brass, trumpets and serpents. This edition provides parts both for clarinets in Bb and for oboes.
