In 1975, in preparation for the American Bicentennial celebrations, David Fetter compiled various marches and dances from late 18th Century America. Bicentennial Music for Brass Quintet has an instrumentation of 2 Trumpets in B-flat, Horn, Trombone and Bass Trombone (a Tuba would surely be fine as well).

The music which is about 8-12 minutes in length depending on repeats is suitable for moderately advanced performers and may be played straight through or made into a customized suite choosing from the many contrasting pieces.
