Clash of the Ironclads

The mighty conflict between the great Civil War ships, the Monitor and the Merrimac, plays out once again on your concert stage! Dramatic and inventive, heroic themes and rhythmic undercurrents bring the historic battle to life. It's a programmatic work with powerful percussion, effective use of dissonance, and distinguished writing for the entire band. It's also quite playable for bands at the medium-easy level!
