Title: Cardinal Coat of Arms    

Transcribed and arranged by Chris Weaver for Jacksonville High School Marching Percussion, Jacksonville, NC. This cadence is deemed easy due to the the amount of repeating measures and multiple use of 16th notes. Although this cadence is a bit long, it is entertaining none the less.

 

Difficulty Level: Medium

From the mind of Mark Roddy, this fun cadence is sure to be a hit.
