This strong and ponderous piece is a musical depiction of Hannibal's epic journey through the Alps with his army of war elephants. As such, the piece serves as a great vehicle to inspire the imaginations of the very youngest of band musicians and helps them play with a maturity beyond their years. Students will enjoy bringing this elephantine cast of characters alive through their instruments.

Elephants - have low brass!
I have plenty of low brass which really makes this one a favorite to play and hear. The tempo is confusing - ponderously but then the mm. is higher than I would think elephants move so we slowed it down but not too slowly. Fun piece. It will be on our next concert. Some of the more advanced in the beginning class will join in.
