War March of the Priests - Felix Mendelssohn / arr. Todd Stalter

Although more famous for his incidental music to , Mendelssohn was commissioned by the King of Prussia to provide music for Racine's religious drama , which includes the "War March of the Priests." The march tune draws its energy from a repeating triplet figure in the introduction, and features a nice legato contrasting section. A great opportunity to teach style and nuance! (2:45)
