SOUSA On Parade (1892) - "The President's Own" United States Marine Band

"The President's Own" United States Marine Band presents The Complete Marches of John Philip Sousa, a multi-year project to record and publish scores for all of Sousa's Marches. Sousa, known as "The March King," was director of the Marine Band from 1880 to 1892. Recording directed by Lieutenant Col. Jason K. Fettig. http://www.marineband.marines.mil/

Sousa inserted this original march when he orchestrated Goodwin and Stahl’s operetta, The Lion Tamer. The march was later published as a separate composition under two titles, “On Parade” and “The Lion Tamer.”
