Program Notes:

This march was commissioned by the Burlington Concert Band to mark the 100th anniversary of the band's existence in Burlington, Canada. Written in a traditional style with a bit of a twist, The Centennial is surely a piece to be enjoyed by both the performers and the audience. It's the march of a century!
