After the war there were changes in instrumentation, more opportunities for new
music, and the number of players was increased.18 In addition to this increase, a major change
to the brass band during these years was the addition of percussion, even though ceremonial
fanfares had been using percussion and brass instruments together for years. These fanfares
date back to at least the 18th century and were usually used for celebrations such as
coronations or weddings of royalty, holidays, or any other large ceremony. Often these early
fanfares would be for trumpets and kettledrums, with more brass instruments added later.
During the 20th century some of the major works for brass and percussion included Aaron
Copland’s Fanfare for the Common Man (1942) and Gunther Schuller’s Symphony for Brass and
Percussion (1950).19
