Скачать или смотреть DAUGHTERS OF TEXAS - J P Sousa - Band Of The Grenadier Guards/Major P E Hills

In 1929 America's march King, John Philip Sousa (1854-1932) composed the march 'Daughters Of Texas'.
Sousa wrote it in response to a petition by 1,700 students at the all-girl College of Industrial Arts in Denton, Texas, now known as Texas Woman’s University.
In October 1928, as part of his Golden Jubilee tour, Sousa and his band held two concerts in Denton at the College. After one performance, a group of students led by Marion Benson and Margaret Marable presented the composer with a substantial petition asking him to write a march for them.
Sousa beamed one of his seldom-seen smiles and replied, “It is impossible to resist the request of 1,700 charming Texas girls.”
This recording by the Band of the Grenadier Guards, conducted by Major Philip E Hills, is from the compact disc 'Hands Across The Sea-Sousa Marches' recorded in April 1994 at London's Blackheath Concert Hall. (Teldec 4509-06061-2)
