The New Album

Marchas Militares concentrates into two works the precise pulse, brass presence, broad wind writing, and rhythmic drive of band tradition. The result is a direct, powerful release, designed both for listening and for audiovisual projects that call for a ceremonial, historical, or martial identity.

Track 01

Avenida de las Camelias

A march with a strong band presence, built on a steady tempo and broad wind and brass instrumentation.

Credits listed in the score:
Adaptation: Municipal Band of Bell Ville · Ernesto A. Bianchi, Argentina · Maestro: Gabriel Mejias.

Track 02

March of San Lorenzo

A march with a decisive and ceremonial profile, presented in the musical documentation with the indication "Tempo de Marcha" and developed for a band formation with a broad timbral presence.

Work credits:
Music: Cayetano A. Silva (1868-1920) · Lyrics: Carlos Benielli (1878-1934) · Arrangement: Miguel Etchegoncelay.

Band Tradition, Contemporary Impact

Flutes, clarinets, saxophones, trumpets, horns, basses, and tubas are part of the instrumental world documented in these scores, reinforcing the expansive and ceremonial character of the release. Marchas Militares brings that energy into a compact two-piece edition with a clear, recognizable sound identity.
