Edwin Franco Goldman's Cheerio March, "Sing and Whistle", is sure to make a nice contrast to Wagner's austere Nibelungen March. The audience will be given to lyrics to Cheerio ("la, la, la, la, la", etc.) so that they can sing along. Two other marches share a historical perspective of America's South: Sousa's King Cotton and Fillmore's Lassus Trombone.
Two Medleys will be featured. A Cole Porter Spectacular includes Porter standards Don't Fence Me In, Night and Day, and Begin the Beguine. Lights, Camera, Action is a melange of movie tunes spanning nearly sixty years of cinema.
The Broadway selection for this concert will be The Music Man, and the classical selection will be the five movements of the Offenbach's can-can classic, Ballet Parisien. Darth Vader's March will be performed with the same "special effects" as before, but, unlike the remake of the movie, the band will not play it any louder than at their previous playing of the piece. On a more peaceful note will be Grainger's Ye Banks and Braes of Bonny Doon.
The second half will be filed with happy fare like The Tiger Rag, Your Mamma Don't Dance, and Yakety Sax, featuring the mighty sax section. The drummers are preparing special (albeit ancient) Equipment for Leroy Anderson's The Typewriter.
