THE WORLD'S GREATEST MARCHES

Preview

One of the most irresistible sights and sounds in the World is that of a marching band. The precision of men stepping in perfect time, the splendour of the uniforms most important of all a splendid martial air, to stir the blood and heighten the senses.

To select twenty of the world's greatest marches is a daunting task - where to begin? Well that at least is easy - with the "March King" himself John Philip Sousa. Sousa's prodigious output of over three hundred marches makes selecting representatives a difficult task as well. To Begin perhaps Sousa's most popular composition of all "The Stars and Stripes Forever". If ever a march could raise the spirits then this surely must be the one.
