March A Doodle Dandy David Shaffer

Sound Foundations
This title says it all. A clever melody punctuated by interesting percussion solo moments introduces your young musicians to march performance style. The well-known American folk tune, Yankee Doodle Dandy is presented as the trio of this march allowing for an interesting independence of high and low voices. Written using only the first six notes learned in band instruction, March A Doodle Dandy is an exceptional teaching tool for introducing a unique musical style, and a great programing piece for any concert.
