March of the Basset Hounds. Van Nuys, CA: Ray Pizzi.

Duration

2.5 minutes

Description

In a departure from his usual idiom, Pizzi’s whimsical tonal march is reminiscent of Gounod’s well-known Funeral March of a Marionette. It was composed in 2011. The music is moderately challenging, including a final ascent to C5, but the piece is tiring, in spite of its brevity.
