St. Petersburg March by Johnnie Vinson

MusicWorks - Grade 2
St. Petersburg is today considered the cultural heart of modern day Russia. This original march from Johnnie Vinson is evocative of this city's rich and exciting history of intrigue, revolution and mystery. Expertly scored for young bands, this unique and fresh-sounding work paints a musical picture of frigid winters, magnificent castles and imposing cathedrals. A wonderful addition to the march repertoire for band.

0:44 undeniably the best part of this whole song

[aggianakos]

Played this in 8th grade for a band festival got first place two years in a row I miss this piece and more specifically, I miss the amazing trombone parts. All my Trombone homies out there!

[ElliotWright]

Draws strongly from 'Farewell to Slavianka'. Very nice march.

[mysterioushomoguy]

Just had this performed during my graduation ceremony today, pretty epic for me, a marchs enjoyer

[jayforerunner]

I’ve never seen a piccolo in such a beginner song like this. Sounds cool

[Fosk-cjkt]

OMG
You need to hear that Tuba part IRL
it hits so different

[gingerstover]

So nice to finally see a full score of this piece!

[solaribass]

My high school band went to state large group with this piece a couple years back. What a wonderful reminder of when band was actually good.

[macart]

0:44 Sounds very close to Farewell Of Slavianka. As that we are playing this our 2022 Christmas Concert and the low brass is getting better every session, I can confirm it.

[SnowGlobeRBLX]

TUBA GANG!!! this was such a good song

[kerbo]

40% of my hatred of coronavirus comes from the fact that it I didn’t get to play this in a concert

[Reesedabomb]

We just performed this at district concert and it was the best piece we’d ever played❤

[fraserboyd]

It’s not really fair to say this is an ‘original march’ by Johnnie Vinson when the tune has been around for years. He’s just arranged it!

[lightningmaster]

played this at my fall concert 2 months ago (i was trumpet 2)

[Dr_Trombone]

We played this for Dixie Band Camp yesterday in 6th band, it was so fun

[jj]

played bells for this, its my favorite peice in band ever.

[chandlergay]

i started this in 7th grade (all online, no concert) and i get to play it this year for an actual concert. i play(ed) part 1 for this year and last year.

[thecheeselord_]

Playing this this year for competition season as part of the alto saxophones!

[humanperson-efgm]

At 0:44 the low brass part slaps harder than my Hispanic Mom.
