🇺🇸William L. Gillock ： Baroque Style Little Suite Merry March

This lively miniature is included in Gillock’s Baroque Style Little Suite. Built around a clear march pulse and crisp rhythms, it combines the neat, poised writing associated with Baroque music with a light and agile character. The music comes to life when the overall flow is maintained while attention is given to the shape of each phrase and the passing of lines between voices. In performance, avoid rushing the smaller notes and use clear articulation to bring out the buoyant character. Let the melody sing while keeping the accompaniment discreet, and give the dynamic changes a natural sense of direction to create a bright and refined march.
