Symphonie Fantastique was written in 1830 as one of the first program symphonies in musical history. The March of the Scaffold is the fourth movement telling the story of a drugged induced dream where an artist who has murdered his lover is condemned and marched to the scaffold where he witnesses his head being chopped off by a guillotine.

This arrangement for 8-part Trombone Ensemble of about 7 minutes in length by Randall Malmstrom is an arrangement of the full movement and is appropriate for advanced performers.
