Our march MP3 recordings are drawn from a wide range of composers. They respond particularly well to a new world percussion treatment in our original arrangements. Classical marches have some similarity in their origins to classical dance music but it is usually restricted to rhythm and tempi.
These pieces have been remixed sympathetically on New World Percussion instruments accompanied by a range of harps and synthesizers:

As with dance, march forms are sometimes incorporated in other pieces to convey a martial theme or underpin a martial phase of a drama. However as military bands developed marches were also subject of commissions. The Scott Joplin contribution also illustrates the use of Marches as civic commemorations.
We have recently added several more ragtime marches and they feature the Balinese Gamelan Orchestra Gongs, marimbas and drums and the full collection can be found at Gamelan Ragtime Marches.
