America's National March

The National March of the USA written in 1891 by John Philip Sousa, Stars and Stripes Forever is one of the great military marches of the world, and is also a popular piece played in band concerts worldwide.

Written by him on his return home from 5 years in the UK, its a proud march of every American and all who love that great country and its flag. Sousa, as the former bandmaster of "The President's Own" US Marine Corps Band, truly made his nation and the world proud through his marches, and this march is truly one of his legendary compositions.
