Description: The suite from The American Maid, set in a glass factory and culminating in scenes based on the 1898 Spanish-American War, was among the first theatrical shows to employ actual film footage. The quintet from Sousa’s early operetta The Smugglers was scored for his eminent brass virtuosi. The medley of drinking songs called A Mingling of the Wets and the Drys was composed during Prohibition, while the unusual and previously unrecorded March of the Pan Americans - Part One celebrates the independent nations of North and South America in 1915 with zest and elan. Guildhall Symphonic Wind Band; Keith Brion.
