Decoy march
Lockmarsch, or Locke for short, is the name given in march music to the transition from the field step , in which only the snare drum is responsible for maintaining step in step , to the next piece of music. The term comes from curls ; the curl should "lure" the individual musicians to the next piece of music. The lure march is usually carried out by the musicians (consisting of drums and pipes ). Then the "sounding game" begins, that is, the orchestral music. As a rule, the parade march of the minstrels sounds before the lock . The term striking is also common in Austria , although this is only performed by the striking mechanism.
The exact design of the curl differs from country to country. So there are z. B. both a "German Locke" and an " Austrian Locke". For German marching bands, the process is as follows:
- The band moves in the field , accompanied by the snare drum
- The Kapellmeister, possibly also the drum major , gives a sign for the next piece
- The bass drum plays three powerful beats on cycle times 1, 2 and 1 of the second measure of the field step
- The snare drum, possibly also the marching band , plays the lock.
- The next piece begins
The lure march is also played by civil bands , for example during pageants . The Locke originated in military music , where it is still used today whenever a music corps is deployed ( appeals , solemn vows ). But also with civil, concert performances of marches, such as B. the Radetzky March , the lock is now played in advance. A particularly complicated shape of the curl is the curl for the great tattoo .
