    Another great march from William Rimmer, "March King," who is reputed to have written more that a hundred marches. March: The Cossack opens with a magnificent portrayal of the strength and vigor reminiscent of a Russian Cossack. An insightful Trio provides evidence of a Cossack's more reflective side before a short bridge takes the music back, via a Da Capo, to its opening power and strength.

    Program Notes
    Another great march from William Rimmer, Britain's Lancashire-born "March King," who is reputed to have written more that a hundred marches. A Cossack, as defined in The Oxford Dictionary, is a "member of a people of southeastern Russia, especially as light horse in Russian army." William Rimmer's march opens with a magnificent portrayal of the strength and vigor which that definition implies and there is more character portrayal to come. An insightful Trio provides evidence of a Cossack's more reflective side before a short bridge takes the music back, via a Da Capo, to its opening power and strength. In William Rimmer's skillful hands, March: The Cossack is veritably a musical portrait.
