Can’t… stop… the MADNESS!
Join me tomorrow morning on WPRB, as we’re overtaken by March Madness. We’ll have a full morning of marches. That’s right. It’s so mad a concept, it hardly seems feasible. Yet we will work miracles in an attempt to avoid a rigid playlist of 3-minute pieces in 4/4 time.
I’ve already got sets of marches piling up for two pianos by Beethoven and Schubert, a symphony for band (and marching machine) by Morton Gould, and works in larger forms that incorporate notable march movements by some of the 19th and 20th centuries’ greatest composers.
We rise at oh-dark-thirty to begin marching at 6. I hope you’ll join me from 6 to 11 EDT, on WPRB 103.3 FM and at wprb.com. These boots are made for marching, on Classic Ross Amico.
