The Liberty Bell March | John Philip Sousa
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 сер 2022
- This iconic march from John Philip Sousa has a unique origin story-it began as a piece of an opera he was composing for comedian Francis Wilson called "The Devil's Deputy." While the opera was eventually scrapped, it was his band manager, George Frederick Hinton, that suggested revisiting the march with a new title after seeing a massive artwork depicting the Liberty Bell in Chicago. Coincidentally, Sousa received a letter from his wife telling him that their son had just marched in a parade in Philadelphia honoring the return of the Liberty Bell from touring the nation. The rest is history!

And now for something completely different.

Monty Python, where are you?

Exactly. And all that's missing is the occasional well timed raspberry! 😉 Lol
@@jmflyer55 and the foot coming down....
I’ve got the original Lakeside record of this March from around 1905 or so… and this fine Army band still nails it 120 years later!
My Dad and his WWII buddies would be firing at 3rd and Main in half an hour, at 11 am, in our small town, today November 11, 2022. Rest in Peace. We miss you dearly. See you soon!
I live in Greece and I go to a music school and we play this march everyone loves it.
The University of Illinois Summer Band played the march and used the bell from the Iowa class battleship Illinois laid down but not completed at the end of WWII.
Beautiful and great March.. I love so much this piece of music so wonderful to hear you all.. thank you the United States Army Field Band .. ❤️
My brother in law was a tenor soloist with the Army Field Band many moons ago.
The timbre and resonance from those chimes are so full. It’s not too loud or soft it’s perfect. Awesome job to the player.
Thank you for the wonderful March played by you.
Lovely. Reminds me of a summers day in a park watching a brass band playing. Many moons ago when I lived in London.
ive been looking for this song for half a FREAKING year, absolute banger
A rousing and beautiful tune. My late Father’s favourite ♥️
Seu compositor Sousa de origem portuguêsa----sabia ?
I didn’t know that. Thanks for informing me 👍
Notice that the conductor almost never actually beat time except when he wanted the audience to start clapping along. He prepared the dynamic changes before the start of each phrase but otherwise got out of the way and let the players do their jobs.
Che splendore!!
Avevo fatto saggio di banda con il mio grande Proff e compianto Maestro Piero Andreoli con questo brano bellissimo!Io ed i miei amici e compagni di banda!
Un grande saluto a tutto voi dalla provincia di Genova

I played this in 8th grade Honor band and it was my first encounter with 6/8, fell in love with this march because of 1:36.
_I love to see them use👐 “hand movements” to conduct an orchestra🎶I think it adds a little something extra_
- Rocket runs out of hydraulic fluid
- Runs out of propellant
- Tis but a scratch...or not!
I enjoy this beautiful music !
Thank you very much!
This march had me pining for the fjords.
No it doesn't. 😉😁
Pining for the fjords? What kind of talk is that?
No, it hadn't, it had you pining for the fjords.
Just learned that the Monty Python theme song is actually this! Mind is blown!
French Horns I appreciate you.
Well Done!!!
Monty Python's Flying Circus... Nice to hear the whole song for once minus all the distractions.
Why?
I love it! Greetings from Germany ❤️
2:53 my favorite part cause of the director looking like he’s having the time of his life
The Monty Python Souza Marche.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Super!!!!!!!!!!
Great piece, but the conductor was exceptional! It's hard to get a sense of how delicate Sousa's pieces are when you know them only from your local high school marching band because there are little or no dynamics to their performances. He got it all just right.
One this is missing ... Terry Gilliam!
I'm not American, so everything I hear is the PS1 "Hogs of War" Videogame's Main Theme.
I'm not American, so all I hear is the theme to Monty Python's Flying Circus.
Percussionist in the center of the screen starting around 0:07 must be a Python fan. You can see him suppressing a smirk.
My schools band performed this and not only did I play the bell part I had an actual ship's bell
Que bonito es escuchar esta melodía los felicito desde mi hermosa patria Chilena un abrazo muy grande a todos ustedes qué dios les bendiga siempre Soledad Rayo ❤🎉
I want to see them marching to Liberty Bell by J. P. Sousa. Aka Monty Python Theme. 😅
Wow... Um.... The Conductor has... Very interesting conducting techniques.. 😅
De Sousa de origem portguesa .
Alo Marins mis colegas Salutos
Ah….they’re using the new US Marine Band edition.
God Bless the LIBERTY BELL!
Where was this concert performed? I don’t recognize the hall.
Masonic Hall in Scranton, PA.
I wonder how this would sound with Lili Marlene mixed in.
It's.......
Funny how no one in the band tried not to laugh.
The bell isn't loud enough 😂
It’s almost deafening in person, we assure you! The mics just didn’t pick it up this particular night.
No doubt true… but the original record in 1905 picked it up loud and clear and will blow you away even 120 years later.
God Bless our Military 🪖 🙏 and our country. Thank for the awesome music.
The entire ensemble did a great job except for the bell player. Seemed like he wasn't certain when to strike.
I think you're mistaken.
You must be a student musician! These men and women are professionals with Masters degrees and PhD in their instrument! They would not be in any special band of any branch of US military bands! PERIOD!!!
