Technical Notes: The electric bass can be played by an optional baritone B.C. and doubles the tuba. The multiple bass drums part is for four pitches. The bells/xylophone part is labeled "mallet percussion" in the score. The auxiliary percussion part is for tambourine.
The "Pops For Marching Band Series" has a unique feature which allows the band director to customize the arrangement to fit their band in the lower voices. Each arrangement is published with two lower brass and woodwind parts, #1 and #2, printed in both bass and treble clefs. Also, an optional E Flat alto saxophone part is included which doubles the low brass and woodwind part #1. This will allow the band director to assign trombones, baritones, tenor saxes and even some alto saxes (if necessary) to balance the lower brass and woodwind sound.
Arranger(s): This piece was arranged by Jerry Kelsey.
Composer(s): "American Woman" was composed by Gary Peterson, Jim Kale, and Burton Cummings.
