| Excellent arrangement by Craig Matteson on August 5th, 2009 |
| If you want to play the ENTIRE work, this arrangement provides an excellent, if somewhat challenging, version of Elgar's famous work. That is, you get the full Pomp before you get to the famous processional march, the Circumstance. Then there is a recap of the Pomp and it finishes with a big version of the Circumstance. Of course, what we Americans call the graduation march, is known in the United Kingdom (or used to be known as) "Land of Hope and Glory". While this version requires some real skill at the piano, it can be mastered by someone who has some chops or is willing to work at what is asked of them. I think it is a bit more than medium difficulty, but certainly doesn't demand a virtuoso technique. The point is that this a complete version of the work and is an arrangement that is worth playing. | | | Need Pomp and Circumstance for a Graduation? by Chris Pawlowski on June 9th, 2009 |
| I believe this is the Elgar score as written. I got the graduation gig at the last minute by order from the principal, so there was no prep time. I had to forget the preliminary section, which needed practice, and cycled the familiar melody. Worked great! | |  | Easy to sight-read... by anonymous on June 9th, 2007 |
| the "Pomp and Circumstance" section (or little practice needed) for accompanist. She will appreciate the clarity of the arrangement and the ease of making it adaptable to all lengths of processionals. Our accompanist linked the two slower processional sections with beautiful modulations, and added the ending of the song as well; it was perfect! | Add your own review!
