The recordings
Alte Kameraden - Musillorps Garmisch Partenkirchen2:59
Historical Context
The Deutsches Museum catalogues Carl Teike’s work as Old Comrades (Alte Kameraden) March on an Aeolian Company player-piano roll. Punched after 1897, the roll documents the march’s circulation through mechanical music.
Recording details
The roll’s manufacture date and playback mechanism describe the museum object; they do not date or identify this supplied recording.
Sources & Resources
Based on publicly indexed catalogue text; the full source page and object images were not inspected.

- Gruss An Kiel - Musikkorps Garmisch Partenkirchen2:08
Florentiner Marsch - Militärmusik Burgenland5:10
Historical Context
The Czech Museum of Music dates Julius Fučík’s orchestral autograph to 3 December 1907 and the Bosworth publication of Florentiner Marsch to 1908. The manuscript preserves title variants, but the museum says the reason for the change is unknown.
Sources & Resources
The museum's article text was retrieved; manuscript/score images and any recording were not independently inspected.

- Pappenheim Marsch - Militärmusik Salzburg1:27
Preussens Gloria - Musikkorps Garmisch Partenkirchen1:40
Historical Context
A Börsenblatt notice dated 24 February 1912 lists G. Piefke’s Preussens Gloria, reworked by Th. Grawert, in piano, military-band and cavalry-band editions. The notice documents several ways of performing the same march.
Recording details
The 1912 notice concerns published arrangements; it does not establish which arrangement is heard in this file.

- Mussinan Marsch - Musikkorps Garmisch Partenkirchen3:11
Bayerischer Defiliermarsch - Musikkorps Garmisch Partenkirchen2:04
Historical Context
The Franconian folk-music research archive identifies Adolf Scherzer’s Bayerischer Defiliermarsch as a work first known as Avancier-Marsch and records its use by several Bavarian regiments. Its history is broader than one unit or occasion.
Sources & Resources
The primary catalogue page and historical-note text were retrieved; its audio was not played or compared.

Radetzky Marsch - Musikkorps Garmisch Partenkirchen2:24
Historical Context
Strauss researcher Norbert Rubey describes a handwritten source for Johann Strauss I’s Radetzky-Marsch, op. 228, underlying the 1848 Haslinger editions. His comparison documents differences between this early orchestration and later familiar versions.
Recording details
The supplied title does not distinguish an early orchestration from a later arrangement, and 1848 is not a recording date.

Unter Dem Doppeladler - Musikkorps Garmisch Partenkirchen2:42
Historical Context
The Wienbibliothek catalogue lists Joseph Franz Wagner’s Unter dem Doppeladler, op. 159, as a march for string orchestra, issued by Rebay & Robitschek without a stated year. The listing documents a different instrumental setting for the work.
Recording details
This separate score does not establish that strings are heard in the supplied recording.

Behind the sound
Marches across instruments and editions
Marches travelled beyond the military band. The Deutsches Museum catalogues an Aeolian player-piano roll of Carl Teike’s work as Old Comrades (Alte Kameraden) March, punched after 1897. It documents one route through which the work circulated. The roll’s date and mechanism do not establish the medium, musicians or date of the supplied file.
The Czech Museum of Music preserves Julius Fučík’s orchestral autograph, completed on 3 December 1907, and documents the publication of Florentiner Marsch in 1908. Its manuscripts contain title variants, but the museum leaves the reason for the change open. These dates concern the composition and its publication.
Printed editions also reveal different performing traditions. A 1912 publishing notice offers Preussens Gloria in piano, military-band and cavalry-band arrangements. Research on Radetzky-Marsch finds differences between its 1848 sources and later familiar orchestrations. These examples help frame the supplied titles while leaving each file’s arrangement, performers and recording date unresolved.
