Conductor Score Parts
I am looking for a Conductor’s Score for a John Philip Sousa March titled The USAAC March?
I am very interested in playing this piece in my highschool’s Marching Band but I can not find any written music on it besides a 2 part piano piece (For reference: http://learning.loc.gov/diglib/ihas/loc.natlib.sousa.200028347/loc.natlib.sousa.200028347.pdf )Can any one would lend me a hand in finding this march? (It is not “Into the Wild Blue Yonder” it is an entirely different piece)
USAAC- [U.S. Army Ambulance Corps] March
[Note: composed 1918; first published edition was for piano (Chappell, 1919)]
a.(band arrangement unpublished, 1918)
b.(band arrangemt unpublished, 1967, arr. R. Wetherhold)
USSAC (1918) honors the United States Army Ambulance Corps, 80 per cent of whom were decorated for bravery in World War I. Sousa personally arranged for people to donate twenty-four ambulances and other vehicles to the corps. Camp Crane, where the corps trained, was located at the Fair Grounds site in Allentown. Colonel C.P. Franklin, the Commanding Officer, asked Sousa if he might compose a march for the corps. Sousa was pleased to be asked and promptly obliged. Except for a copy in the Library of Congress, the march was lost in a fire for five decades. At the Fiftieth Anniversary Reunion in 1967, Sousa cornetist, Bert Meyers, directed the USSAC March, arranged for the band by Ray Wetherhold.
Ray G. Wetherhold, 94, Musician And Composer
