Mine is Kenneth Alford's The Vanished Army.

Simply stirring.

You mean outside of Williams's collection?

Hayden's funeral march.

Chopin - Funeral March

Sure you don't mean that one? That one and Verdi - Aida is my favorites.

Great Bouncing Baby Jesus, did I just really confuse Chopin and Hayden?

There's not enough beer in the world to hide my shame.

I love so many! Very hard choice here. I would have to say that my favourite march is the Movement III March-Scherzo from Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. “Pathétique”.

Honourable mentions go to the Marcia Funèbre from Beethoven’s “Eroica” symphony and to Tchaikovsky’s Marche Slave.

The song that they usually played for the Soviet Union... I don't remember how to spell the composers name.
"The Great Gates of Kiev"

March Slav.

March Of Cambreadth.

Bagpipes in a March just fucking own.

It's the final movement of Modest Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition.

I'm a French Horn player, I have no favorite march.

Bah, but seriously... I'd say any Sousa stuff, maybe, not a big fan of marches.

Badonviller Marsch, Regiment am Meuse or Marcia Carolus Rex.

Outside of the usual suspects from Williams and the classical repertory, I'm partial towards the theme music from the old Steel Panthers game (or was it SPII?).

Star And Stripes Forever

Sousa

The Thunderer! It sounds like the theme song to Coach, which, incidentally is my 2nd favorite march

I love blood and thunder marching bands. Where i live i've got the chance to hear catholic and protestant flute bands and i tell you there is nothing better than either of those to keep you walking in time on a 15 mile march in the July sun.

I have a taste for early-20th century American marches. Sousa marches are great, of course, but Henry Fillmore and John Klohr are great, too. The Billboard March is stirring and fun as hell to play. And no fucking strings! Nothing is worse than a march scored for wind band transposed for an orchestra.

There are way too many marches to choose a favorite. There's tons of great marches in classical music, although in most you cannot march to them. Prime examples being Mozart's Wedding March from Figaro and the Grand/Triumphal/Triumphant March from Verdi's Aida. Sure, you can probably march to certain parts, but not throughout the entire piece. Then there are those of the Prussian march collection, which were composed so you can march to them. A fine example of this would be the Badenweiler Marsch.

Metallica's rendition of the Imperial March.

That was pretty cool.

I'd also like to mention the Hell March form Red Alert.

"March to the Scaffold" from Hector Berlioz's 'Symphonie Fantastique.'

Are you sure you don't mean the quite march-like Emperor's Waltz by Straus jr?


Anyway, my favorite is the Radetzky March for concert marches. Other than that, I'm voting for Preußen's Gloria.
