Composed in 1910, "The Melody Shop is" one of bandmaster Karl King's most famous original compositions. The popular march was originally written for the "Robinson Famous Shows" circus, where King began composing and performing music at only 19 years of age. After an extremely successful career as a circus musician, King went on to start his own music publishing company (K.L. King Music House) and lead the Grand Army Band in Canton, OH. Karl King's marches capture the essence of the circus with their fun melodies and swift harmonies; and his legacy will live on in the fingers of euphonium-players everywhere.
