Probably the most famous march in history, Stars and Stripes Forever was composed on Christmas Day 1896 while Sousa was traveling aboard the SS Teutonic bound for New York. In his autobiography, Sousa wites that he imagined the music while at sea and set it down on paper shortly after his return home. The manuscript full score is dated April 26, 1897. The march was first performed by the composer conducting the Sousa Band on May 14, 1897 in Willow Grove Park, near Philadelphia, though this date is dusputed by the city of Augusta, Maine - who claim the premiere took place at a Sousa Band concert given there on May 1. With the Spanish-American War in view, the new march became immensely popular from the very start and has remained a favorite ever since. The piece was first published on the very day of the premiere in the composer's piano reduction. With many reissues and reprintings and the expansion of band instrumentation - some added after the composer's death in 1932 - the scoring became bloated over the years. This new edition by Richard Sargeant goes back to the composer's original source material and to the actual performing practice of the Sousa Band itself to present a masterpiece of band writing as the composer himself used it. As with all of the Serenissima band offerings, it is presented in an easy-to-read format for use as either a study score or a performance score.

Listeners have enjoyed classical music recordings for more than a century, yet important issues about recorded performances have been little explored. What is the relationship between performance and recording? How are modern audiences affected by the trends set in motion by the recording era? What is the impact of recordings on the lives of musicians? In this wide-ranging book, Robert Philip extends the scope of his earlier pioneering book, Early Recordings and Musical Style: Changing Tastes in Instrumental Performance 1900-1950. Philip here considers the interaction between music-making and recording throughout the entire twentieth century. The author compares the lives of musicians and audiences in the years before recordings with those of today. He examines such diverse and sometimes contentious topics as changing attitudes toward freedom of expression, the authority of recordings made by or approved by composers, the globalization of performing styles, and the rise of the period instrument movement. Philip concludes with a thought-provoking discussion of the future of classical music performance.
