About
This is a must for any collector of marches, especially because, under the baton of Leif Arne Pedersen, who is also Principal Clarinettist with the Oslo Philharmonic, these are stunningly musical performances.
The Norwegians demonstrate their prowess in a fascinating selection of European and American marches.
This recording includes some Scandinavian rarities and marches from Belgium, France, Germany, Great Britain and the old USSR from where we hear two Police marches and Salute to Moscow.
Even if you already own recordings of all these marches, you should buy this CD because you won’t find more musical and stylish performances anywhere.
