Hungarian March, arranged by Philip Catelinet, is available on the CD 'Around The World In Eighty Minutes' by The Rigid Containers Group Band, conducted by John Berryman.
A great march (perfect for contests such as whit Fridays) dedicated to the memory of those who worked at Bletchley Park, Milton Keynes, England, in World War 2. They were under the brilliant leadership of Alan Turing and were responsible for breaking the secret military codes used by the Enemy Forces (German in particular). The composer, Len Jenkins, lives close to Bletchley Park, went to school even closer, and attended Training Courses actually in 'The Park'. The march has memorable themes and is toe tapping for the audience.

Duration: 5′ 00″ Difficulty: Intermediate
Dario Salvi has reconstructed Franz von Suppés operetta ‘Die Afrikareise’ (A Trip to Africa) in a ground breaking project with Winsconsin University and the Strauss Society, which will see the operetta being performed in English for the first time in 100 years.
This march for Brass Band brings together themes from the operetta under the title ‘I See the Fatherland’
" After almost two years of work on the score of the Operetta, during which I extensively worked on preparing a full orchestral score with all the singing parts in English, it is almost time to stage the work.
The music from ‘A Trip To Africa’ is full of amazing melodies and interesting ideas. This march for Brass Band is a collection of some of the themes from the Operetta: The “Entrance of Titania” Fanfare leads to one of the most recurring themes, where the singer declares their desire to go back to their Fatherland (in this case Naples) after their visit to the very exotic Cairo; the starting point of their adventure into the heart of the Desert.
Exotic sounding yet very Viennese rhythms are the main characteristic of this march. Dario Salvi 2015 "
