I have a student learning Morris Goldenberg's Soldier's March. I'm hoping there might be a smarty pants among us who could please tell me...dotted quarter = 92!?!? Seriously? I'm inclined to think this is a misprint.
That's pretty excessive, but the only part that seems totally unreasonable at first glance is the accented 32nd notes in the second and fourth lines from the end-- I'd have to do an accented RRLL sticking on those. That first thing on the second page with the 32nd note triplet is a little suspect, too.
92 is kind of ridiculous, actually. I think dotted quarter = 70-80 would be plenty ambitious for most people. 56 would be reasonable-- you'd want to play the rolls with a 16th note triplet pulsation at that speed. That's not allegretto, though, so I guess he meant it about the faster tempo.
