Description:

Composed in 1891 as a result of friendly bet between Genaro Codina (1852-1901) and fellow composer Fernando Villalpando to see who could write the better military march, the ZACATECAS MARCH is perhaps the best known march to come from Mexico, is the anthem of the State of Zacatecas, and is considered the second national anthem of Mexico. Originally written on Condina’s preferred instrument, the harp, the good natured loser of the original bet arranged a band version for the premiere. This edition for orchestra was transribed by Alfred Roth. Instrumentation: 1.1.2.1: 2.2.1.0: Perc(2): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set).
