"Midnight March"
by Thomas Juzwiak
Grade 2.5 | Medium Level Band | Duration: 2:05
"Midnight March" is an exciting, original concert march from Thomas Juzwiak, one of the most popular composers in the Warming Sun Music Publishing catalog. Though it adheres to the traditional elements of a march—melody, counter-melody, and a bold, rhythmic drive—this piece offers a refreshing twist. With its unexpected key changes and brief yet dynamic structure, "Midnight March" is not your standard march but rather an engaging piece that will capture the attention of both performers and audiences alike.
Written for a medium-level band, this march presents a few challenges with some higher notes for the wind sections, making it ideal for developing ensembles. Its concise length—just over two minutes—makes it a perfect choice for both opening and closing a concert program.
While the title might suggest a late-night atmosphere, the real inspiration behind "Midnight March" comes from a more personal source: it is named after the composer’s youngest cat, Midnight. So, whether it’s the mysterious charm of a feline muse or the thrilling energy of the piece itself, "Midnight March" will leave a lasting impression on your audience.
