Conduct the march "His Excellency" by Henry Fillmore with the Kent School Concert Band at the Friday, April 25, 2008 Spring Concert, 8:00pm.  (Must be able to attend the Tuesday, April 22, 6:30pm rehearsal.)

"Henry Fillmore wrote, arranged, and edited more band music than any other composer/ bandmaster in history with over 250 compositions (including 113 marches) and over 750 arrangements. He also spent free time publishing band instruction books that became standard learning material in the homes of thousands of young musicians. "His Excellency" is believed to be one of his best marches, although somewhat forgotten and overshadowed by other classics from the same period."
