Based on one of my first pieces I have ever written, I present to all you "Spy on the Run - Arranged for Marching Bands". When I showed this to my teacher back in high school, he said the piece reminded him of a marching band show instead of a wind ensemble. Due to the comment he made, that is what I did. This took me three years for me to complete this because I kept losing interest in finishing the piece. The last few weeks I toughed it out and finished the ending and my god, I loved the way this turned out.
Please, if you would like to leave any sort feedback, please do by dropping a like, leaving comment, sharing or even consider subscribing to my channel. I will be working on new and even better pieces plus one I brought out of retirement in the near future so please stay tuned. Please also to listen to this with headphones for the best possible experience. Thank you all and have a wonderful day!
