Young Concert Band - Grade 3
From one of the landmark musicals of all time, here is an exceptional production number on one the show's best-known tunes. Michael's arrangement is authentically adapted from the original Bernstein score yet playable enough to sound great with most bands.

    From what I've heard, MSBOA Class C/ D are Grades 1 - 2 at Hal Leonard (and subsequently Alfred Publishing and APC), whereas Class B is High 2 - Low 3, A is High 3 - Low 4, and AA is High 4 - 5. So you are right, this arrangement of America would be considered a B to A-Level piece.
