Solid Pop Ballad for Field Shows
A reliable choice for a marching band performance. The arrangement of 'Hard to Say I'm Sorry/Get Away' is a crowd-pleaser and recognizable. Given it's a Grade 2-3, the parts are practical and shouldn't demand excessive rehearsal time. The transition from the trumpet solo to the strong 'Get Away' finish provides good dynamic contrast. It's a standard Hal Leonard publication, so part clarity and layout are generally good for field use.

Excellent Arrangement for Developing Bands
This Chicago medley is perfectly suited for junior high or developing high school marching bands. The Grade 2-3 difficulty is spot-on, making it accessible while still offering engaging ensemble challenges. Paul Murtha's adaptation is clear and well-spaced, which greatly aids students in reading their parts. It's fantastic for reinforcing rhythmic precision and blend within the full band context. Highly recommend for school and community performances.

Well-Crafted Melodic and Harmonic Support
Though for marching band, this arrangement demonstrates excellent instrumental voice-leading, effectively handling the 'vocal' melody line. The opening trumpet solo establishes the lead clearly, and the full band texture builds beautifully to support it. Murtha ensures the harmonic accompaniment is rich yet not overly complex for Grade 2-3 players, providing a solid foundation for the lyrical lines. It's a thoughtful adaptation that carries the emotional arc of the original very well.
