Fun fact: The reason this song was titled Centuria was that it was written for and dedicated to the 100th anniversary (1986) of the C. L. Barnhouse Company, which is the publisher of Swearingen's compositions.
What a great song! One of my best memories ever, playing the clarinet. This was one of the songs, one I remember the most. My friends in Japan were incredible and just everything about the band, was absolutely enjoyable.
Freaking love Centuria. For Festival in two days, we are playing Blue Ridge Saga and Centuria. I FINALLY became first flute! I'm the youngest first flute in our school's history! *Sophomore in a school built 11 years ago* So happy~!
