Parade march

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Over the course of time, a large number of march compositions were created under the title Defiliermarsch . The name is derived from the military term defiling (cf. military parade ) and thus reveals the originally purely military purpose of marches of this name.

Nowadays only a few marches with this title are known to the general public. One of the most popular is the Bavarian Defiliermarsch by Adolf Scherzer , which is often shortened to the Defiliermarsch , which gives the false impression that there is only this one march with this title.

After the Bavarian parade march , the parade march composed by Carl Faust in 1855 ( Army march II, 126 (AM II, 168)) is today the most famous march with this title in Germany. It is often played on official Bundeswehr events such as state visits or vows .
