Listen.about.With its driving rhythm and thoughtful melodies, Johnny’s March is sure to enthrall and captivate any medium-advanced ensemble looking for a march-style work. Young’s piece explores an original theme through the use of contrasting instrumental sections with light solo work near the end.
Johnny Hemkes was a long time, highly regarded brass teacher in Southeast Wisconsin. Not only was he recognized as an outstanding educator, but he was known also for his friendly selfless demeanor. He was a true mentor to his students and the music community. Hundreds mourned his passing in 2006.
Belle City Brassworks performs a memorial concert each year to honor Johnny's legacy. Because the march was among his favorite genres, I have composed this piece in his honor. piece information.
