Marching music in your country?

Postby Medwedian Democratic Federation » Thu May 29, 2014 12:22 pm

Is marching music and similar types of brass music popular in your country? What is the style of your military marches? Are there any famous marches or famous composers?

In Medwedia, marching music is very popular, and generally is a mix of Russian, British, Scandinavian and German traditions. Normal marches usually have 120 BPM.

Hedgnorf H. Kjolsen is probably the most famous composer of Marching Music in Medwedia; he lived from 1792 to 1867; composing his most popular marches such as "Hail Medwedia!" or "The President's Review" in the 1840's or in the 1850's.

We're a militaristic nation, so it's natural we have a bunch of marches.

Here's an example of one of them.

They aren't that popular even though the population is pro military. Our marches range from all of the Slavic countries as well as some adapted German ones.

They are extremely popular here in Saurisia, given our militaristic and warlike history; marches in Saurisia are usually of the German Oompah-style with the lyrics often being in either Saurian, Drakonian, or Pomerian.

Although there is a strong military tradition in Vissegaard, our forces never seemed to adopt the modern, post-gothic marching music. We use hymns and chants instead. It may sound dull, but it´s more like sacral music here. In fact, the same music is performed in churches, so...
Here is one - The Day of Wrath Chant.
We should add - our soldiers like to sing.

Jankenjin soldiers don't march; since our bodies are built somewhat like kangaroos, we hop instead of walk. What this means for marching music in our country is that it's a lot more "bouncy" in tempo, and isn't usually done in 4/4 time: 2/4, 2/2, or 6/8 meters are more common.
