J.B. LEMIRE: Music: Colmar

Colmar, Allegro militaire
Also: Colmar, Marche

"Colmar" was composed in honor of the town of Colmar (Alsace), where Lemire was born. While the autograph score for orchestre d'harmonie is titled "Colmar, Allegro militaire / par J.B. Lemire", the printed piano edition omits "Allegro militaire" from the title which reads instead, "Colmar, Marche". The piano edition also bears the dedication "A mon ami Courtioux, Chef d'Orchestre au Casino Kursaal de Lyon."
