Coronation March
Giacomo Meyerbeer, arr. Franco Cesarini
Giacomo Meyerbeer composed his opera Le Prophète in 1849. In this opera a coronation is preceded by a splendid march. Although the opera itself is rarely performed, the Coronation March has gained a place in the concert repertoire.
Franco Cesarini’s arrangement for concert band of Coronation March stands out for its skillful instrumentation which underlines the powerful sounds of this classic concert march.
