Saxony-Cuirassier March

The Sachsen-Kürassier-March is a march by Johann Strauss Sohn (op. 113). The work was performed for the first time on July 26, 1852 in the beer hall in Fünfhaus in Vienna.

Remarks

The march, which was dedicated to the officer corps of the KK Kürassier-Regiment König von Sachsen , was performed jointly by the Strauss Chapel and two military bands on the occasion of the Annen Festival . One of the military bands came from Russia, the other was the band of the above mentioned regiment. The march was well received and was later often played by the Strauss Orchestra in Vienna and on many guest tours.

The playing time on the CD listed under individual records is 2 minutes and 49 seconds. This time can vary somewhat depending on the conductor's musical conception.
