Story + A Song

While you listen to this song, I have a story to tell you:

In middle school Concert Band, we were supposed to play this song. I was playing the snare drum part, so I was the backbone of the percussion. This song always made me so happy with it's strong melody. However, we eventually scrapped the idea of playing this. To this day, I still wonder what could have been if we performed this song...
