Four Military Marches

Composers:
  • Amalia, Anna (Princess Of Prussia)
Arrangers:
  • Lenzewski, Gustav
Detailed Instrumentation: String Orchestra (8.8.5.5.5 in set)
Duration: 7
Description:

Anna Amalia (Amalie) of Prussia, Princess-Abbess of Quedlinburg (1723-1787) was among the ten surviving children of King Frederick William I of Prussia and Sophia Dorothea of Hanover. Her father hated music, so she was only able to begin formal musical instruction after he passed. She then learned to play the harpsichord, flute, and violin, receiving her first lessons from her brother and future King, Frederick II, all of which was encouraged by her more ‘civilized’ mother. Given that her father was dedicated to the military, Anna Amalia composed several marches for military regimental bands, a genre not commonly adopted by women composers. This collection of FOUR MILITARY MARCHES has been arranged for string orchestra by Gustav Lenzewski. Similar in style to Haydn’s marches for strings, these are not technically difficult and are very approachable. Included: 1. Marsch für das Regiment “Graf Lottum” (in B-flat; 1767); 2. Marsch für das Regiment “General v. Bülow” (in E-flat; 1767); 3. Marsch für das Regiment “General v. Saldern” (in B-flat; 1768); 4. Marsch für das Regiment “General v. Möllendorf” (in E-flat; 1767). A string count of 8-8-5-5-5 is included in the set. Reprint edition.
